Remy moved ahead of me, out of the car and across the drive to the main
door of the house.
“You know you didn’t have to come in with me, right?” I said. “I’m more
than capable of carrying my suitcase.”
My bodyguard cast a look at me that spoke volumes. “Do you think you’re
hiding how much pain you’re in right now?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m fine.”
I wasn’t. My leg was killing me—agony licked like fire along my thigh and
hip. And why? Because I overdid it during the final gig in the US leg of the
tour last night. Overconfidence at the speed of my recovery from the accident
nine months ago drove me to ignore the signs of impending doom, and I
backflipped off the stage. The pain when I landed almost made me pass out.
Key word being almost. I pushed through it and finished the set without a
single dropped note or outward sign of the agony I was in. The second we
finished the encore, I claimed exhaustion and slunk back to the hotel room,
hoping no one noticed the slight limp or the way I was favoring my leg.
I thought I got away with it—none of the band mentioned it, not even Seth
and his sharp awareness of everything about me. After an unsurprising
sleepless night, we boarded the flight back to L.A., and I added
overwhelming exhaustion to the pain. All I wanted to do was crawl into my
bed and not move for a month. I wanted to sleep, but Harper wasn’t due to
come home for another two days.
She’d left partway through the last week of
the tour to travel to Chicago and meet some people who were interested in
donating to the foundation we were building. Without her beside me, sleep
wasn’t so easy to come by. Insomnia was a constant companion, regardless of
my newly health-conscious lifestyle. I still went days without, even with
Harper nearby, but when I did sleep with her beside me, I slept well.
Remy unlocked the front door, disrupting my musings, and he stepped
inside, placing my suitcase against the wall. “Do you need anything else?”
“No, I’m good. Thanks, man.” I walked past, patting his shoulder as I went.
“Now go home.”
