I heaved a sigh of relief when Jackson left. I honestly didn’t know if I had it in me to drive nineteen hours to Nebraska from Raleigh with just them and me.

Wait a second . . .

“Mia,” I said to myself, grabbing my phone from my pocket. I shot her a text.

Spontaneous trip to NE tomorrow. Come home and pack.

Her response was quick and to the point. Srsly?! Omw.

Clark was standing in the kitchen. He’d gotten a towel and was taking apart the weapons he’d acquired. Cleaning them, I guessed. The tension felt very thick, though I wasn’t always the best judge of that.

“I really hate it when you antagonize Jackson,” I said.

“I think it’s a mutual antipathy,” he replied.

“Yes, but it takes two to tango.” Those idioms really came in handy in everyday conversation. “I’d appreciate it if you could be the bigger man.”

“I am the bigger man.”

I rolled my eyes. “I didn’t mean literally—for once. I meant—”

“I know what you meant,” he interrupted, finally glancing up at me. “Fine. I’ll attempt not to antagonize him. But it’s not as though we’re going to be buddies.”

“I’m not asking for that. Just a cease-fire, okay? For me? Because I can’t take you two fighting.”

His lips twitched. “I thought every woman’s fantasy was to have two men fighting over her.”

“I’m not every woman,” I shot back. “And my friends are few. I’d prefer those I do have not despise each another.”

There was a flicker of something in his eyes that I couldn’t read.

“I understand. I really do. There aren’t many in my life I’d label as a friend either. I’ll try to get along with Coop.”

He didn’t mention the conversation we’d been having when Jackson arrived, and I didn’t bring it up either. Best to just let that one drop.

“Good,” I answered just as the front door opened and Mia came bounding inside.

I explained to Mia that we had to go see someone in Nebraska and that it’d be a good time to visit her parents, too, but that we’d be driving instead of flying due to Clark’s current . . . status.

“Road trip!” she exclaimed. “That’s awesome!”

I wished I could have felt some of her enthusiasm as she hurried upstairs to pack. Not only did I not want to be stuck in a car with Jackson and Clark, I wasn’t exactly looking forward to showing up on my dad’s doorstep with them in tow. But there was no way I could take Mia with me and not show my face at home. Jackson had said he wanted to meet my family. Well, he was going to get his wish.

Clark borrowed my keys to take my car, saying he had a “go bag” nearby that he could retrieve since he still couldn’t go back to his house. Which left me standing alone in my living room after what felt like a whirlwind had gone through it.

I was at a momentary loss as to what to do. It was Sunday, which meant I needed to do laundry.
