Chapter Six

“I can’t believe we didn’t do this sooner,” Zach said to Logan as he sorted through the box of library décor they’d packed away after Nat left for Chicago.

“Well, we weren’t expecting her to come back. I didn’t want to jinx it either. Will she stay?” Logan hung the gauzy curtain over the door to the library.

“She’ll stay.” Zach had to be positive. He’d pulled all her stuff from the attic. All the dark wood could be harsh on Nat’s readings. Zach changed the lightbulbs to a softer pink light.

She already had her crystals and cards out, but these little touches mattered. Although she hadn’t asked for them, he knew it would help her feel at home again.

Near the bottom of the box, Zach found a light-colored paisley shawl that belonged to Nat’s grandmother. He laid it gently over the sturdy round wooden table Nat used to do readings. It brightened up the room lined with shelves of books. The thick area rugs over hardwood floors made the room feel plush.

Logan hung a dream catcher and some crystals on the windows. “We’ll see how her talk goes at the school. Asking a real witch questions will make some parents uneasy,” Logan said.

“Laura wanted her for show-and-tell. The more her family embraces her, the better. I’m still shocked that Chris is budging a little.” Zach hated biting his lip through the dinner. “We should’ve told Chris off.”

“No. I would have loved to, but Nat would’ve lost her mind if we treated her like a helpless woman. She can stand up for herself. No doubt, she’s got the guts, just like she did when she went off to Chicago. We supported her last night, and that’s what mattered.” Logan set out a few miscellaneous scraps of fabric for Natalie to hang where she wanted.

The old velvet chairs and couch in deep earth tones were Nat’s grandmother’s choice and well made, so they’d probably never be replaced. But Zach would keep an eye out for new throw pillows to update the look. “True. Maybe having two men around all the time made her want to leave? Were we too pushy?” he asked.

Logan walked over and hugged Zach from behind. The tension eased from Zach’s body. The heat and the connection were there—stronger than before. Zach knew they loved each other, but when Nat wasn’t around, the differences seemed to take center stage. When they were all together, their unique personalities made them stronger.

He set out a few candles, then left the box on a bookshelf for when Nat needed them. “Are we going to be okay if she goes again?” Zach asked.

Logan pulled Zach into an embrace. Zach held him tight. “Depends why she goes. If it’s the town, I say we go with her. Exploring a little of the world won’t hurt. Once Chris realizes we aren’t going to give up or break up, it’ll be easier. That dinner was a good start.”

“She can handle her brother. It’s just a shame she doesn’t have his support.
