You have the bank. All in the same bid month.
End a pairing on the 21st, ticket home on the 22nd, MEM to XYZ.
Begin a pairing on the 29th, ticket XYZ to MEM on the 28th.
So roundtrip ticket MEM-XYZ-MEM. Each travel day is within 3 days of a trip pairing.
I have always done one way tickets, but have been looking at round trips. They would be cheaper and save money. Can I expense this type of deviation?
Are you talking about buying a nonrefundable r/t with the company credit card? If so, yes you can do it. I used to do it all the time on AA before they gave us miles. Back then, (and still so) you could get the AAdvantage miles since you are paying the same price as any other traveler. They only downside is, that once you buy the ticket, you can't get rid of the trip since the tickets are non refundable.
