Vaughan
Callum disappears into the bathroom. The moment I hear the shower start, I make quick work of pulling some clothes on, gathering my stuff and getting the hell out of his room.
I find another closed door and once I’m as confident as I can be it’s a guest room, I slip inside and shut the door behind me. Dropping my bags to the floor, I rest back against the door and blow out a long breath.
How the fuck did I end up here?
More movement outside the room has me jumping into action. The last thing I need is Mom coming to find me and digging into why I’m up here hiding.
I find a hairdryer in one of the drawers and take an extortionate amount of time smoothing my dyed red hair until it’s perfect.
Realizing that I can’t put off the inevitable any longer, I slip on a pair of flip-flops and hesitantly make my way back down to the kitchen.
Coming to a stop in the doorway, I take in the laughing faces in front of me. Mom’s standing at a man’s side who is basically an older version of the man who was in my bed last night. He’s got his arm wrapped around her waist as he looks up at her with love and longing in his eyes. For the first time ever, I actually wonder if she got it right with this one at long last. Ripping my eyes from the happy couple, I glance over at his two daughters who are also hanging off their father’s every word.
“Oh here she is,” Mom announces when she spots me hovering awkwardly. “Are you okay, sweetie?” she asks much quieter when she comes over and grabs my hand.
“Yeah, yeah. I’m fine,” I lie.
“Come on, I’m so excited to introduce you to everyone.” She pulls me farther into the room and we come to a stop at the table. “Derek, Lizzie, Jess, this is my baby, Vaughan.”
My cheeks heat as they all turn to look at me with welcoming smiles playing on their lips. “Hi.” My voice comes out as an awkward squeak.
“Vaughan, it’s so good to finally meet you. Your mother has told me so much about you,” Derek says, getting up and heading my way. He doesn’t stop at what I would consider a respectable distance for someone you’ve just met and instead pulls me in for a hug. It’s a weird feeling, not only because I’ve never really had any kind of father figure in my life who ever cared but also because he really is just an older version of Callum. I can’t deny that it’s not freaking me out a little.
“All good, I hope.”
“Of course. She misses you though.” His words are like a stab to the heart. Not seeing her very often isn’t intentional. I just work, a lot, and she’s always off flitting around finding men and marrying them in exotic countries, just like the one who still has his hands on my upper arms.
