I wouldn’t have stopped chasing you

Piper and I had just carefully stored the last item from the huge collection of Thorn’s—or the one he had been willed, I should say—into the van we rented for the day. Piper had been driving back and forth between the house in The Orchard and Trend all day. When the van would fill up, she would head off and monitor the offload by the cage staff, then head back to help inventory, store, and load another trip. Luckily, this was the last load because we were beyond exhausted at this point. I knew the collection was extensive before we started, but I didn’t think it would take us this long.

We’ve been here, in this huge house in The Orchard, for hours now, and I feel like I could crash any second. Heck, we’ve been here for so long, it seems as if days have passed since this morning when Piper came to pick me up from my house in that huge van. In reality, that was really only eight hours ago. Eight really, really long hours.

Thorn greeted us with breakfast when we arrived this morning, but he took off shortly after to head over to The Alibi to get some work done. I frown when I recall the tense set of his shoulders when we walked into the house earlier. I wanted to ask him about his reaction to this place, but I didn’t—just like I hadn’t the other times we discussed when I would come and pick up everything or the sale of the house that just went under contract the week prior. Knowing he doesn’t like being here is one thing, but pressing for him to tell me what makes him so uneasy about this place, especially when we aren’t alone, wouldn’t be right.

“Remind me the next time some tall, dark, and handsome man shows up at Trend with promises of grand riches to deny him before he can so much as blink, okay?” Piper complains with a laugh, pressing her hand to her head before making a dramatic show of dropping to the floor. She rolls onto her back in the middle of the now empty closet, her curls even more wild than normal after working so hard today running all over the place. Even tired, my friend looks beautiful. Aside from her unruly locks, she looks like she is ready to strut her stuff in an activewear runway show.

“I shouldn’t agree with you for the sake of Trend thriving and all, but right now, I think I would shut the door on that hypothetical tall, dark, and handsome man myself. I can’t believe how sore I am.” I drop down next to her, the carpet soft against the exposed skin around my tight workout clothes.

I smile, remembering how Thorn had reacted when I got out of the van this morning in my racerback tank and short spandex shorts. My very short spandex shorts. We’ve been together for a while now, but he’s yet to see my workout gear.
