Chapter Four

Sean smacked the racquetball back across the court for the final score. He lifted his goggles off his face and grinned. Lately it seemed like nothing could go wrong.

“Good game, man.” He shook hands with Tyson and rubbed a towel over his damp face and hair.

“I was glad you called. You fell off the face of the earth, for a while.”

Sean grinned. “Yeah. Had some stuff going on.”

Tyson bent over to pick up the ball, and paused, twisting to look at Sean. “You look like the cat that swallowed the canary.”

“Do I?” He sure felt like it. He changed the subject before Tyson could probe any deeper into the reason. “How’s it going with the new lady?”

“Samantha? It’s okay. She won’t go the distance, and she’s not the one I want to bring home to meet Mom, if you know what I mean.”

Sean did, and that was troubling him. He did have one that worthy, but was so confused about what to do. Heather was more than worthy, but how far did he want to explain their bizarre situation? And was it even possible?

“Didn’t know you were looking for one to take home. Are you thinking about settling down, then?”

Tyson shrugged. “I’m not getting any younger.”

“I hear that.” He caught the ball as Tyson tossed it. He bounced it once on the floor. “How do you think you know—when you’ve found that person?”

“Beats me. Everyone says you just ‘know.’”

Based on the expansion of his heart every single time he saw Heather or heard her voice, Sean had always known.

Now if only he could get her to stay with him for more than a year.

“How’s your lady friend?”

“What? Who?” Sean’s head jerked up as Tyson’s question yanked him back to the court.

“There could only be one person I’m referring to.” Tyson chuckled. “I’m talking about Heather Lovey. The love of your life, the woman who’s your reason for existing.”

Sean laughed, hoping it sounded like every other time Tyson teased him about how much he’d always had a thing for Heather. But before he could respond, shame welled up in his chest like a shark from the deep, hungrily devouring every other emotion.

So far, he hadn’t told anyone that he’d gotten married. Not his family, not his friends, not a single co-worker, not Tyson. During the six weeks of his marriage, he’d turned down a dozen offers for dates and set-ups. His excuses were going to run dry soon, and he needed to at least admit that he was dating someone. But then they’d all want to meet her, and have them over for dinner, and before long her belly was going to start showing and then he’d have to explain that, and the giant rock on her hand was going to take some explaining too.

From the moment she’d said I do, an immediate countdown had clicked on inside him and he felt every minute as it slipped away and rushed toward the end of the year. He didn’t want his friends to know that she was here so he wouldn’t have to explain her absence after she was gone.
