Chapter 27

Levi

He collapsed onto his lumpy couch, staring at the far wall without seeing a thing. He was exhausted.

Which wasn’t surprising, considering it’d been a week from hell, but that still didn’t mean he found it enjoyable.

On Monday morning, after the weekend’s big reveal worthy of a reality TV show, Levi had walked into the John Deere dealership and dropped his keys on his boss’ desk. “I’m done here,” he told Sam. “If you wanna know why, you’re free to ask Rocky. But I’m out.”

He turned around and walked out of Sam’s office while the man was still sputtering in disbelief, but Levi just didn’t have it in him to stay and explain it all. His patience for the story and for the world as a whole was simply gone. He felt worn out, emotionally, physically, mentally.

But today was Day 4 of being unemployed, and he was already starting to regret his impulsiveness. Maybe he didn’t have to quit the dealership after all. Maybe he could’ve just learned how to co-exist with Rocky and they could’ve moved on and eventually built some sort of relationship based on trust.

It was possible.

Highly unlikely, but possible.

Levi had been living frugally his whole life, and had plenty stashed away in his savings account that he could live off if need be, but the panic and worry was already starting to eat away at him. What if he didn’t find another job for a long time? What if he lost his house? What if he became homeless? What if he became just like Steve – a drunk who blamed everything on everyone else?

What if…what if…what if…

He forced himself to take a few deep breaths. He’d be fine. A metal shop in town and a few farmers had been interested when he’d stopped by to talk to them. One of them was bound to hire him. He probably wouldn’t be paid as well or have as nice of a benefit package, but he’d make it. He’d been in worse spots before—

Knock knock.

The sound jerked him out of his thoughts. Who the hell is here? Moose hadn’t mentioned coming over tonight but maybe he’d wanted to surprise him. Levi pushed himself off the couch, swallowing his groan. He was tired, stressed to the max, and grumpy as hell. He wasn’t sure Moose deserved to be around him in that moment. No one did. He’d just have to tell Moose that they could hang out another day.

Except, he pulled the door open to find not Moose but Tennessee standing there, just as beautiful as ever.

No, scratch that. More beautiful than ever. His eyes searched her face and body hungrily, betraying him even as he was trying to force himself to tell her to go away. I’m not good enough for you. I’m toxic. You have to leave me alone.

She was wearing a short denim skirt, knee-high boots, and a drapey blue-green top that hugged her tits without making her look like a prostitute.

In short, she was stunning.
