âI forgot your coffee, so I went back.â Braden came inside the room with a proud smile on his face. âHere you go.â
He looked more sober. His hair wasnât messed up anymore. It looked like he had wet it so it wasnât sticking up, and his clothes had been righted. His shirt was even tucked inside his jeans. I looked past him, but didnât see the girl that had been with him. As I took the coffee from his hand, I asked, âYou ditched the girl?â
He grimaced. âAll she wanted to talk about was Luke. The girls have it bad for him. Seriously.â Then he realized whom he was talking to. âWere you two holding hands earlier?â
Change of subject. Now. I coughed. âThe doctor hasnât come in yet, but a nurse just did. She said the surgeryâs done. He should be here soon.â
âOh, good.â He slid a distracted hand through his hair, upending it again as he glanced around the room. His hand dropped back to his side. âWhereâs Luke?â He winked at me. âOr are you going to change the subject from that question, too?â
I clutched my coffee tighter. âElijah came and got him.â
âElijah?â
âYeah.â I cringed. âI have no clue where they went. Neither shared. They took off right away.â
âShit.â Braden grunted, hopping onto the bed and dangling his feet off the end. He pulled out his phone, texting as he said, âIâll figure it out. Theyâll tell me.â After a few minutes, he shrugged and placed his phone beside him. âMaybe not. Sorry.â His phone lit up. âHuh?â
âWho is it?â
âKelly from the bar.â He answered the phone, âHello?â After another moment of silence, he asked, âFor real?â Then hung up the phone and shook his head.
âWhat is it?â
âSomethingâs going down with Emerson. Elijah was in there asking for him.â
âIsnât the bar closed? Itâs almost four.â
âYeah. Thatâs the thing.â He shook his head. âShe said he was in earlier, and just now, she was heading home when she saw Elijahâs truck run a red. She was at the stoplight, and she thought she saw Luke in there with him.â
My mind was made up. I stood and grabbed the keys. âWhich way were they headed?â
âWhat are you doing? What about Mom?â
âYou stay. Youâre good at that. Iâm not.â I started for the door. âWhich way, Braden?â
He hesitated.
I barked out, âIâm going anyway. It would help if you gave me a general direction.â
He let out a sigh. âSouth on Broadway. She was at the 117th stoplight.â
That was all I needed. I hurried for the lobby, but braked as I saw the doctor heading past me. Grabbing his arm, I asked, âMy mom?â
He stared at me for a moment before recognition sparked in his eyes. âOh. Your mom is stable. She had a miscarriage, and some of the fetus was still attached to her uterus. She passed out because sheâs anemic. Sheâs sleeping now, but theyâre taking her to her room. We want to watch her for a day, at least, maybe two to make sure everythingâs passed this time.
