E A S TO N
My mom waved from the screen door as I rolled to a
stop beside her aging SUV. In the graying twilight, she
looked older. Sad. I hesitated, but then she blinked, and
the drawn lines were gone, replaced by a wide smile. I got out of the car as
she descended the steps to meet me. She looked as fragile as glass if I looked
closely—so I didn’t look. Instead, I hugged her tight and let her smooth my
disheveled hair. I’d ridden for hours with the windows down, hoping the
fresh air would do me good. But now that I was here, that familiar heaviness
had already settled in my gut. And the scent that hung around this place—all
of it added up to one thing.
The feeling of home.
Fuck, this was going to suck.
“Easton. It’s so good to have you home.”
I made some weird noise that wasn’t even English, but she didn’t care.
Looping her arm through mine, she dragged me toward the house. “Come on.
Dinner’s almost ready.”
“Where’s Dad?”
The question alone left a sour taste in my mouth.
“Working late. He’ll be home soon.”
I bit my tongue. We both knew he wasn’t working and he wouldn’t be
home soon. But I’d lost that argument a long time ago.
“Andy.” A goofy mutt greeted me at the door, tongue first. I laughed and
bent low to let him slash his tongue across my arms and neck.
“That’s enough, Andy.” My mom batted him away.
“Good to see you, buddy.” I hoped my enthusiasm for the dog didn’t
outshine my enthusiasm for her.
“He’s still got more energy than any of us.” She led the way to the
kitchen.
I followed my mom down the hall, avoiding direct eye contact with a
single family photo. If I was careful, maybe I wouldn’t notice I’d moved
back. Then again, the brick in my stomach said otherwise.
By the time I got to the kitchen, my leg had already started to ache. I
settled on a barstool and watched as my mom set a brown glass bottle in front
of me. I took it, swigged appreciatively, then set it down again, frowning as
the taste of beer registered.
“Used to be root beer you’d serve up while I watched you cook.”
She offered a wry smile. “Times have changed, I guess.”
“I guess.”
I didn’t bother to tell her I rarely drank.
She stirred the chili then eyed me. “So. How’s the knee?”
“Temperamental.”
She smirked. “I asked about the knee, not its owner.”
“Very funny.”
I took another swig then glanced around. The kitchen was bigger than I
remembered. The Home Sweet Home sign above the sink was still there,
though. As was the chip in the edge of the counter. I remembered that
particular day like it was yesterday.
I shuddered at the memory.
“I read the medical notes you sent over,” Mom said, pulling me back to
the moment. “Your doctor said you’ll recover fully as long as you stick to the
therapy he recommended.”
I grimaced.
