Chapter Thirteen

Camden

Standing in the shower under the heavy downfall of water is a relief to my aching head. After spending the afternoon traipsing around an expansive golf course with my college brothers, I’m much more tired than I expected. Golf has never been my favorite sport. Too much walking, too little game. I prefer the excitement of hockey.

I remember the beaming smile on Natalie’s face from the bleachers at my last game. Her enthusiasm is always infectious, making me play harder, move faster. I wonder what she’s been up to all day. A wine tasting isn’t exactly up her alley either, but I hope she had a decent time. Maybe the wine helped her loosen up and shake some of those nerves she always has around her female friends.

In retrospect, I shouldn’t complain. Spending the day catching up with the guys has been great. We’ve easily fallen back into our easy banter from college, giving each other shit for every missed hole. It’s equal parts hilarious and exhausting, but I’m willing to expend that energy because I don’t get to see the guys very often anymore.

I turn off the shower and rub my wet hair with the towel as I drip onto the tile floor. As I wrap the towel around my hips and exit the bathroom, I spot the time on the alarm clock next to my bed. It’s almost time to join everyone around the bonfire. After that, we’re dedicating the night to decompressing in the hot tub. The shower didn’t soothe this headache I’ve been carrying around with me all day, so hopefully relaxing in the warm water will.

I dig through my luggage, pulling out a pair of trunks I bought on my last mall run with Natalie.

“Navy blue is your color,” she said, tossing them at me. That was all I needed to purchase them. Yet another aspect of my life Natalie has had an influence on.

Will there ever be a day that I don’t associate her with everything around me?

God, I hope so.

I leave the trunks on my bed and dress for the bonfire in a pair of jeans and a shirt. After I push a little product through my still-damp hair, I head out the door with my thoughts as my only company.

When I arrive at the clearing at the back of the resort, the fire hasn’t been lit yet. Grace and Meredith are already lounging around the stone pit.

“Hi, Cam.” Meredith smiles. She’s in her bikini top and sweat pants, a loose cardigan draped over her shoulders in a feeble attempt to ward off the cold. The temperature is too low to be so scantily clad, in my opinion. By the way she squeezes her breasts together and smiles at me, I don’t think she’s thinking about the weather.

“How was golfing?” Grace asks, genuinely interested. She’s more practically dressed in her oversized plain sweater, leggings, and long socks.

“It was fun,” I say, half lying. “Want me to get the fire going?”

“Such a gentleman,” Meredith purrs.
