Chapter Eighteen

HEATH SAT AT A SCRATCHED-UP table in the noisy Trapper’s Tavern and guessed he should feel flattered that Kent and Leon wanted to take him out for a drink. He had been in Zeke’s Bend a little more than a week, and he was starting to get to know Sylvie’s family.

They were reluctantly getting to know him too. He ran into Kent, Phae’s husband, on the street that afternoon, and the man had invited Heath on a boys’ night out. Heath had agreed, mostly because he thought it was important to get to know the people in Sylvie’s life.

When Kent said he’d invite Leon, Meg’s husband, there was no way Heath could decline. Meg was Sylvie’s business partner and was very important in Sylvie’s life.

Heath wondered what he would be like when he got married. He admired the way that Kent talked about Phae as if she were the most important thing in the world to him. Kent was obviously over-the-moon happy about becoming a father soon, even though he downplayed it.

Part of Heath was wistful he’d missed Sylvie’s pregnancy. It was a crazy idea to even cross his mind. Sylvie was already gorgeous but adding in the pregnancy glow had probably made her luminescent.

He shook his head and stared at his beer, watching the tiny bubbles stream upward to the surface, wondering about a fleck of something unidentifiable floating around in the golden liquid. The bar was pretty much a dump, a place that attracted locals who were serious about drinking and couldn’t care less about basic hygiene.

He tried to ignore the fleck and looked around Trapper’s Tavern. To say that it was a dive bar was an understatement, and as a result the it attracted mostly men. It was situated several miles outside of Zeke’s Bend on a state highway.

Heath listened with a cautious ear all night to the conversations going on around him. Leon and Kent were currently caught up in a rowdy game of darts. Heath went out early. He’d kidded with them when they first walked in the door that he had absolutely no athletic prowess whatsoever, and Leon and Kent proceeded to take full advantage of it.

He took a sip of his beer and chuckled along with Kent as Leon threw a dart and missed the dartboard entirely. Leon blustered around about having something in his eye. Heath had no idea how he’d lost the round so quickly to someone who was obviously so horrible at it.

But then again his head wasn’t really in the game. It was back in town with Sylvie. He’d made a move toward taking their relationship to the next level and been interrupted by her brother. He and Sylvie hadn’t discussed it since it happened the night before, even though they had spent a few hours together this afternoon.

Kent gave a small whoop as he hit the dartboard with the final dart that won the game. Heath smiled and raised his glass in the air. Kent pulled the darts out and tried to hand them to Heath to start a new game, but Heath shook his head.
