“DO YOU WANT to go?” The question comes out before I acknowledge
what I’m saying. It should be automatic—my question. Or at least I should
know if I want my serious boyfriend, the man I live with, to go back home
to Birchbark with me, but I already know what he’s going to say, and I
don’t feel strongly about it one way or another. That’s not how it’s supposed
to be when you’re in a relationship with someone. I know that, but it
doesn’t change the reality.
“To spend the summer in Michigan with your family that I’ve never
met? I can’t say that I do,” Rob replies, standing in our bedroom in a pair of
briefs and a button-up white shirt. Rob is…honest, blunt. He’s logical and
doesn’t sugarcoat feelings. It took some getting used to, but now I don’t
even flinch. I’d rather know where people stand than be blindsided. I’d
rather not think someone is one person, only to be completely betrayed by
them. “I can’t believe you’re going.” He glances toward my suitcase, which
is beside me on the mattress.
“My dad had a stroke.” The soft fabric of our blanket is like a pillow
beneath my thighs. All the stuff in our Santa Monica condo is Rob’s. It was
his place, and I’d moved in with him. None of it is really my taste, but the
bed is certainly comfortable. Most things here are too sterile for me, though,
but I don’t care enough to mention it to him.
Rob pulls a pair of slacks from a hanger. “You hate your dad.”
My spine stiffens, memories trying to dig their way to the surface, but I
throw more dirt on the pile, not willing to let the past become uncovered.
He’s right. I do hate my father. There had been two people in his life he
cared about making happy: my mom and himself. Actually, that’s not true.
He was different with Ella, but I think that’s because she was the only girl
and Mom had wanted her so damn much. The week before she’d
hemorrhaged, Mom had been the happiest I’d ever seen her. And while Dad
doted on Ella in ways he didn’t with us boys, he’d left taking care of her
and Easton to me, Rhett, and nannies. Rhett and I’d both had Ella and
Easton to worry about after we lost Mom.
A slow ache starts in my chest. I rub my hand over my left pec, trying to
massage it out before it can grow. “My brothers need me,” I say, unsure
why I’m even talking to Rob about this. If I want to share with anyone, it
should be Spencer, my closest friend in Santa Monica. He’s the kind of guy
who will drop everything to go with me if I ask, but he’s also in a new
relationship and crazy in love with his boyfriend, Corbin. I’m not going to
bring my shit to his doorstep.
