CHAPTER ELEVEN

A WEEK LATER, Macey walked out of the hospital and to her car, finding a note under the wiper blade. She wondered if someone was advertising something, but when she glanced around the crowded parking lot, she saw hers was the only car with anything on it. She grabbed the note and unlocked her door, climbing inside. Before she could read the note or even start the engine, her phone rang. “Hello?”

“Hi, babe. You left work yet?” Dallas asked.

“Sort of.” She shoved the letter in her purse, started the car, and pulled out of the lot. “I’m leaving now.”

“Do you want to go out for dinner or cook?”

“You cooking or me cooking?” she asked.

He chuckled. “If you come straight to my place, I’ll cook.”

“As tempting as that is, I really need to get out of these scrubs.”

“You know, if you kept a few things here, you’d be set.”

She smiled. They’d had this conversation before.

“I’ll run home and grab a shower, then meet you at your place. Sound good?” she asked.

“You could shower here while I cook.”

Macey bit her lip. “Next time. But I’ll be quick. I promise.”

“Pork chops good?”

“Sounds delicious.”

“Okay, see you soon. Love you.”

She grinned. “Love you too.”

She hung up and headed home.

After a quick shower, she decided to pack a small bag to leave at Dallas’s place. It was a huge step for her, but it was also nice to think that she’d have an alternative if she ever wanted one. She texted Payton to let her know that may or may not be home later, then texted Dallas to say she was leaving the apartment, before climbing into her car and pulling out of her garage.

The sun was setting when she’d left the hospital, but it was now fully dark and it brought to light the one thing she didn’t like about Dallas’s home. There was no garage and the only parking was on the street. She started to feel anxious about walking in the dark, but willed herself to calm down. She could always call him and he’d meet her outside.

As she neared his house, she saw him standing on the sidewalk, but he stepped into the road as she approached. She pulled up alongside him and lowered her passenger window. “Hi.”

He grinned. “Hi. I’m gonna move my truck, so you can park here.”

“You don’t need to do that.”

“I know,” he said, and grinned. “Back up a bit.”

She nodded, her heart warming at his kindness. She backed her car up and waited for him to pull out before taking his spot. Macey gathered up her purse and bag, and climbed out of her car, closing and locking the door just as Dallas jogged up to her. He took her bag and leaned down to kiss her quickly. “Hi. This is a little heavy for one night.”

She grinned. “I brought a few things to leave here.”

“Perfect.” He kissed her again. “Come on, chops are almost done.”

Macey took his hand and followed him up the porch stairs and into the house.
