TWO DAYS later, Jeremy and Aiden were actually visiting Ariadne when Stanley arrived. Jeremy saw him hovering outside of the curtained room and moved to the side.

“C’mon in and sit a bit, Stanley. Don’t mind us. I can sit on the edge of the bed here, and Aiden, he don’t mind standing none,” he said, his cheeks wreathing in smiles and his dark eyes crinkling in the corners. His hair hung straight and shaggy from a part in the middle, which was funny because he’d almost always had it slicked back when Stanley had seen him before.

Jeremy’s voice was a mish-mash of places, classes, and education levels—but Stanley always had the feeling that he’d grown up country poor. He certainly had the manners of someone who was used to giving up their own comfort for someone else. Of course, after talking to Ariadne, maybe that was because he was used to putting people at ease, and Stanley waited to distrust Craw’s hired man, based on the new information about his past.

Whatever else the motor-mouthed millworker might have been, at the moment, Stanley was willing to believe he was one-hundred percent genuine.

Ariadne grabbed Jeremy’s hand. “Stanley’s been my savior,” she said, from her sideways position on the bed. “He keeps coming in and gossiping about women at the shop and I pay him back by gossiping about you guys—”

“Us?” Aiden asked, and Stanley turned to look at him just because the boy was particularly easy on the eyes. Aiden was tall and broad shouldered, with curly brown hair and brownish eyes. His smile was startling in his tanned face, and he looked like he smiled a lot, judging by the divots in his cheeks. When he looked at Jeremy, though—that’s what was interesting. Suddenly he went from smiling young man to a rather fierce predator, and through the course of their conversation, Stanley realized that Johnny and Ariadne had been right—everything they’d said about Jeremy and Aiden had been right. Jeremy wasn’t the strong one, or even the older one, regardless of his age. Jeremy was the fragile one, and Aiden was his pet wolf, ready to protect him.

“What’s so interesting about us?” Aiden was asking now, and Ariadne laughed.

“You two? Between you two and Stanley, your love life has pretty much filled up our days. Whether or not you’ve told Craw, how serious you are, which one of you wears the pants—”

“Aiden,” Jeremy said promptly, smiling like it was a joke. “He’s more stubborn than I’ll ever be.”

Ariadne took his hand to her lips and kissed it. “I could argue that,” she said gently, “but I won’t. Now, about being serious—”

“I moved in,” Aiden said shortly. “With my parents blessing, and my little brother’s profound thanks because now he gets my room.”

Ariadne looked at him and gasped. “Now that we did not know.”

Jeremy looked at her and shook his head like it was no big deal. “It happened right after Thanksgiving, Ari—and he pretty much just told me he was bringing his toothbrush and his clothes and shit for the walls.
