CHAPTER THIRTEEN

Beck woke and stretched. Mmm. His ass ached, but it was a nice feeling. He turned over, not really expecting Cal to still be there, yet still disappointed to see the other side of the bed empty.

Maybe one day he’d stay all night.

Or maybe not.

At least Cal seemed to be making a regular habit of coming over in the late evening—if the last few days were any indication—and he hadn’t outright rejected Beck’s ideas to improve the farm. He wasn’t sure himself why he was so eager to help Cal other than simply needing something to focus on besides cleaning, sorting, and berating himself for not knowing what his next step would be. Oh, and stupidly longing for more than just a quick fuck. No, he wasn’t going to think about that anymore.

Working on a proposal for Cal would be a great reward for getting some of the tasks he’d been putting off done, like sorting through his grandmother’s attic. No telling what was up there; probably a lot of stuff he didn’t want, but he still had to at least look through it.

But if he was going to do some proper sketching of his vision for the farm, he’d need some art supplies. He had some drawing pencils, but he’d love some higher-quality ones. He also needed a large drawing pad, a new eraser, and, ideally, some watercolors. He’d tossed his old ones, which were mostly dry when he’d moved.

Where did a person find quality art supplies in Ames Bridge?

Maybe it was time to stop hiding on the farm and go downtown. From what he’d heard, several new shops and restaurants had opened up in the last few years—his last visits before his grandmother died had been short and never included going downtown. Possibly one of these new places sold what he needed. If not, then he could at least buy a Mother’s Day gift, a birthday present for his sister, and find a new place for lunch. He’d told Cal he wanted to support the town, so he might as well follow through on that.

But he was getting ahead of himself. It would be several more hours before most shops were open, so breakfast and some attic cleaning needed to happen first. He glanced at the hatch containing the attic stairs as he made his way to the kitchen. He so did not want to go up there.

He started some coffee and then stared into the fridge. What should he eat? Hmmm. Maybe pancakes would give him the energy he needed. He pulled out eggs and butter and then opened a cabinet where he could find the other necessary ingredients. Pancakes always made him feel good. Of course, they’d be better if he had someone to share them with, someone like a stubborn blue-eyed cowboy fantasy come to life.

But that wasn’t going to happen, so he whipped up the batter, got the griddle heating, and even made strawberry syrup with local berries he’d gotten at a fruit stand the day before.
