“I’VE MADE A RESERVATION for 6.30.”
Dawson’s hands still, his shoelaces only halfway tied. A knot forming in
his stomach, he looks up.
Cal’s expression is unreadable—or it would be to anyone else. He taps
his fingers against the mug of coffee in his hand before bringing it up to his
lips. There’s a hint of challenge in his eyes as he watches Dawson over the
rim of the mug.
Gaze dropping to his shoes, Dawson finishes up with the laces and
slowly rises to his feet.
“That sounds nice, but I’m not sure I’ll make it in time.” He grabs his
jacket and throws it over his shoulders. Since September arrived, the
weather’s been getting warmer, but the mornings are still a bit chilly for his
tastes. Definitely no dipping into the ocean for at least another month.
A lump grows in Dawson’s throat when Cal doesn’t say anything. There
used to be a time when he dreaded what Cal might say, but if the past six
years taught him anything, it’s that silence is so much worse.
“What do you mean?” Cal asks, voice smooth and cool, like the edge of a
knife.
Okay. So, they’re talking.
“I mean, it takes over two hours to drive to Toowoomba. I’d have to
leave at four at the latest–”
“So do it.”
The lump turns into a giant rock, cutting off his voice. He glances at Cal,
seeing his expression hasn’t changed.
Dawson makes a show of looking at his phone. “It’s ten o’clock already.
It’s Olivia’s birthday, Cal. I haven’t seen her and the kids in months.” He
resents how desperate he sounds. “I’d just like to spend more than a few
hours together.”
A muscle in Cal’s cheek jumps. He hates canceling plans, hates steering
away from routine.
This one is on Dawson. Stupidly, he’d thought that when Cal agreed to
let him visit his sister, he wouldn’t make any other plans that day. Dawson
shouldn’t have assumed. He knows better.
“We always dine out on Saturday,” Cal says, a ghost of darkness in his
tone.
We eat out most of the time, Dawson almost points out, but his sense of
self-preservation keeps his lips sealed. Sliding his hands into his pockets so
they don’t shake, he summons a sheepish expression. Depending on the
situation, that tends to do the trick.
“Maybe we could do Sunday this time?”
