Chapter 13

Grant

The trip to the doctor with Caleb had been difficult. He was pretty down that day, and he didn’t talk as much. He’d stared at me with those big, dark eyes, like he could see through my soul, and every time, it brought back memories I wanted to forget.

I couldn’t have an episode when I was alone with the boy. It was hard, but I managed to keep my shit together. He behaved, mostly just seemed sad, and was checked out by the doctor, who said he’d need some special shoes - which we’d get for him. No problem.

I was already sucked in. I’d do anything for Caleb. Just like I’d have done anything for another little boy on the other side of the world, if I could have saved his life.

I knew Piper was taking him to the funeral. Funerals were tough for me; I’d seen too many good folks die in my life already. I would have avoided the funeral altogether if I could - I hardly knew Andy, after all. But I wasn’t going for Andy.

I was going for Caleb and Piper.

I waited in the parking lot for them to arrive. I recognized Piper’s car as it pulled in and watched as she got out of the driver’s side. She was wearing a black dress with a delicate lace overlay and lace sleeves. Her hair was down but straightened smooth and looked like silky framing her face. It blew in the wind as she stepped toward the back door to grab Caleb.

I got out of my truck and walked toward her, watching her every movement. The way her hips swished as she walked, her cute little ass as she bent down into the backseat. I knew it was the wrong place and time, but damn, she was beautiful.

With Caleb in her arms, she turned back around, and our eyes met. I wasn’t too far away, but it felt like time slowed down as I made my way over to them.

As I got closer, Piper looked more and more beautiful. She’d worn more makeup than usual, her lips a soft red and her eyelashes darker and thicker than I was used to seeing. I didn’t know much about that stuff, but it was obvious she’d put some effort into her appearance - and she looked amazing.

Caleb was the first one to speak. “Grant!” he called out.

Piper put him down on the ground, and he rushed toward me, almost like all was right in the world again. God, how I wished that were the case. I lifted him into my arms and swung his legs outward. He smiled wide at me, and it was the most adorable look I’d ever seen. I was just glad he was happy for a little bit.

Piper walked over to me, followed by Tabby, who I hadn’t even noticed until that moment. Piper’s face was all seriousness. Her jaw clenched tight. Her hands balled into fists. Her eyes darted around the parking lot as if she was afraid of the big, bad wolf jumping out from behind a car or something.
