Chapter Sixteen

Nancy

A few days go by and we start to think that everything was blown out of proportion. Well, I think that way. Travis disagrees. He keeps telling me that it’s only been a few days and that it’s hard to target me if he’s around. He does have a point. We are spending just about every waking moment together. EVERY. WAKING. MOMENT.

It’s been a really long time since we spent time alone like this. Syd would always be there as a buffer, making things easier to deal with. Now, it’s just us and we aren’t getting out much. Josh didn’t tell us to stay home, but we seem to both want to avoid people. And it is as hot as hades outside. We’re both born and bred Texans, spent the majority of our lives in and around the Austin and San Antonio areas, and even we are avoiding this summer heat. It is the hottest one we’ve had in the last decade, so it gives us an easy excuse to stay inside.

We don’t talk at all about the show. It’s like we both know it isn’t time, but it shimmers there in every conversation we have. We’re avoiding it. Travis, because he’s still trying to convince me that he’s changed. Me, because I don’t want to give up on that dream. I shouldn’t want to be part of that show anymore. Travis has been beyond disrespectful. If a man had treated Syd the way he treated me, talking down to me, being dismissive of any idea I’ve had this season, he would tell her to get a new job. But it was our baby. We took a chance and it paid off. Walking away was hard enough when he was being a dick. Now that he’s being understanding and sweet, it’s almost impossible. If the contract was still outstanding, I would definitely change my mind.

It’s Friday night and we’re hanging out at my house. There isn’t that much to do in Juniper after ten, other than Wyatt’s. Well, there is Texas Night Life, a dive outside of town with a BYOB policy. I avoid that place because it tends to have all kinds of problems.

We’re catching up on one of our favorite sitcoms. With our schedule during the season, we miss a lot and since there are a few shows we both like, we tend to stream them together. Or we did, up until last year. I avoided him all of our off season. Or as much as I could. It was the only thing that kept me somewhat sane.

My phone buzzes with a text.

Carter: You know I’m coming tomorrow, right?

I roll my eyes. I love him to death, but he takes a lot of work. His poor mother must have been overwhelmed. I know I would start drinking if I had a five-year-old Carter to deal with. As it is, he’s about Travis’ age and he’s barely slowed down. He also thinks the whole world revolves around him.

Me: I know.
