Chapter 26

Landslide

It wasn't long before the school year had ended.

The basketball team won state, making it to nationals, coming in third.

A few short weeks later the triplets turned eighteen.

A couple weeks after that the racetrack held their annual amateur drift races.

The races had started out for fun. Now it had agents coming, hoping to find their next client, drawing in more people than were allowed entrance. It had grown to the point that they had to have pre-order tickets and hire security for the event. It was what paid the track’s expenses for the year, making it so everything else was money in their pockets.

Parker watched Ryder turn white as a sheet when Maggie’s race began. She was finally able to take part in it, and they all anxiously watched from the top of the main building, where they were able to view the whole track.

When it was all over and Maggie had won, all air expelled from Ryder’s lungs.

Parker was shocked to realize he had been holding his breath the whole time.

He knew Ryder had a crush on Maggie. He could tell by the way he avoided her like the plague but was always staring at her. He had brought it up once, but his brother got so flustered by it that his words stammered while he tried to deny it. Parker let it go. He didn't think they were a good match anyway. Ryder needed to find someone more like Ava, who preferred to be away from the crowds and enjoyed Friday night movies at home more than going out. Someone who didn't mind that he was anti-social because she was the same way, who wouldn't force the touching until he was ready; something he believed Maggie would move too quickly on, believing she could help.

Parker was feeling better than ever these days. To his complete surprise he hadn't had sex in over nine months. Nobody but Ryder knew.

He did find he had started an OCD over things in its absence. Things had to be in order at his side of the garage and in his home, but he was okay with that, it didn't hurt anybody (well except for Peter, who got yelled at every day for not putting the can opener in its correct location).

Now that Violet was eighteen he was ready to move their relationship forward. He truly felt he could handle a relationship (at least with her). She was the only one he'd ever want by his side. He was going to talk to Noah about it that night. He figured it was his best chance at Noah agreeing. Race day always left all the Baxters happy, and Maggie winning would only lighten their mood.

Then came the hard part of confessing his true feelings to Violet. He prayed he wasn't too late, that she still wanted more from him. Despite the chance that Noah might not agree or Violet shoot him down, he was optimistic, something he couldn't recall ever being. He was in the moment, not letting the past dictate his life, and it felt damn good.
