Before he left, he put a note on the table for Aaron.

Home shortly, thanks for helping Mathers. Lots to discuss.

He hesitated there, wondering if he needed to put Peaceful Passages into ink or if it was understood. In the end he left it out. He needed to trust his son, who had just blown triple zeros after Steve’s accusation, who had just helped police locate a body, and whose wild claims about Mick Fleming’s nocturnal activity might not be so wild after all.

He didn’t write anything about rehab, but he wanted to close the note with something more personal than lots to discuss. He wanted to write I love you because it was true, more crucially true than Aaron could ever know, or at least ever know until he had a son of his own. They’d never really been an I love you kind of duo, though, so he thought it might weird Aaron out, make him think that Steve was already taking his cues from a rehab therapist. In the end he just wrote, Thank you, son, because at least that implied some level of trust. He didn’t mention rehab and he didn’t mention the glass in the sink that smelled of whiskey. Those topics were better saved for conversation.

He put on his hat and uniform jacket and his gun belt. He’d taken the day off, but when he arrived back at the Chill, Steve Ellsworth was damn well going to look like the sheriff of Torrance County.
