Cody moved the gearshift into park, then slumped down in his seat, exhaustion filling him through and through. He looked over at Boss, who sat beside him, as worn out as he. They’d gotten up early that morning and driven into the mountains for their daily run. After leaving Lee Ann’s the night before, he’d been too wired, his mind going in too many directions of “What if?” to get a decent night’s sleep. Seemed like wearing himself out on the hills would be a good idea.

Only...the arduous run had settled nothing. All it had accomplished had been to exhaust both him and his dog.

He reached over and patted Boss on the head. “Hang on, bud. This won’t take long. Then we’ll get you home and you’ll be able to take your morning nap. A good long one today. I might even take one with you.”

Seemed a good thing to do on a Sunday when you had nothing else going on. Which he apparently didn’t. He clenched his jaw at the memory of how the night before had ended. Didn’t do to dwell on things he couldn’t change, though.

His stomach rumbled, and he rubbed a hand over his damp tee. He’d called in breakfast as he’d headed back to town, not in the mood for company, but definitely ready for a meal. But now, looking down at himself, sweaty and ripe, he wished he’d taken the time to run by the apartment and grab a quick shower before running in to grab his food.

If he were to believe Ms. G, people were beginning to come around to the thought of him not being so bad. Apparently word had gotten around that he hadn’t been a brute at Lee Ann’s over Thanksgiving, and for some reason, it seemed to be a positive that he was the girls’ father. Whenever he ventured out, he now got words of encouragement and small talk about the kids, as opposed to the snide comments he’d gotten used to overhearing as people passed. It was...odd. Yet strangely comforting.

He also found himself wondering what the Monroes would have thought about it all. Swiping a hand down his face, he pushed that thought from his mind. He would never know. He also would never be able to apologize to their faces for the way he’d left. That was tough to take, especially when he hadn’t realized he’d wanted to apologize until Sam had told him they were gone. Again, nothing he could do about that now. No need to dwell.

He opened the door and stepped from the car. Showing up in public looking like the derelict he’d been when he’d first left probably wasn’t the best idea in the world, but that was just going to have to be too bad today. He was starving, and people would have to get over it.

Before he could grab for the restaurant door and go in, it swung out toward him and Holly stood there. Tight skirt, makeup too much for
