ABBY
I’m sitting in the driver’s seat looking up at apartment 1C, debating on
whether I should get out of my car or not. I can see the front door clearly
from my spot on the side of the road. There are no flowerpots or rocking
chairs on the porch. There’s not a welcome mat in front of the door, and the
window shades are drawn closed, not allowing the sun to shine in or anyone
to see out. There’s nothing that says I should be walking up there and
knocking on the closed door.
But that’s exactly what I need to do.
I grip the steering wheel until my fingers turn white, and I force myself
to loosen my grip. This is not a big deal. Davis Jones is my older brother’s
best friend. They served in the Army together for years until they went to a
private organization. Davis has come to my family’s house when he was on
leave plenty of times. Well, he did until two years ago. He hasn’t been there
since he was hurt.
When my brother called me from some unknown location in the Middle
East to tell me that Davis was in Whiskey Run, I didn’t believe him. He’s
often teased me about the tiny crush I had on his best friend, and I thought it
was all a joke. At least until he told me that Davis really is living just a few
miles down the road from me and is working at the Heroes Rehab Center.
Two years ago, Davis lost his leg in an explosion, and I haven’t seen him
since. Not because I didn’t want to see him. Damn, I wanted to see him
more than anything, but I also knew that I was just Zach’s little sister, and
Davis didn’t need—or want—me around.
He was across the U.S. then, but now, with him in my hometown, I
don’t have an excuse. He’s literally five minutes from my house, and there’s
no way I’m going to let another day go on without at least checking in on
him. I may tell myself I’m doing it for my brother, but a big part of me
knows that I’m doing it for me. I need to see him.
I get out of my old but trusty SUV and stand in front of the building.
“One foot in front of the other,” I mutter before I slowly make my way up
the sidewalk that leads to his apartment.
When I get to the small porch, I take a deep breath and knock on the
door before stepping back and waiting for any kind of noise from the other
side.
I’m already looking for reasons to walk away, convincing myself I can
try again another day when there’s a thud on the other side of the door and
then suddenly it swings open. For just a second, I stand here with my mouth
hanging open.
