BRENT MARSDEN WAS a terrific guy. Nate couldn’t remember when he’d enjoyed anyone’s company more. If he’d experienced a certain dissatisfaction during the game, it had nothing to do with the man seated next to him.

The truth was, he’d expected to see Laurel when he went to the door to pick up Brent. Instead he’d found her brother-in-law locking his car, which he’d parked in front of the house. Another car, a rental stood in the driveway; apparently they had out-of-town visitors. Nate would never know if it was simply perfect timing, or if Laurel had something to do with the reason Brent had been outside waiting.

As Nate slowed down and pulled into the driveway, the car he’d seen behind the Cavalier earlier was no longer there. It was twenty after ten. By now Laurel would be in bed. Tomorrow Nate’s father would be returning from his honeymoon.

An emptiness stole through him because he didn’t know when another opportunity would arise to see her again. With the tickets Rick had given him, he’d run out of his last legitimate excuse to hang around the Marsden family.

Brent turned to him. “Are you in a hurry to get home?”

Nate’s heart began pumping the way it did in the cockpit at takeoff. “No.”

“Then let’s go inside and give the girls a bad time. They’re huge 76er fans. Little do they know that the NBA championship is going to come out of the Western Conference. After the Nuggets’ close win tonight, I’m in the mood to celebrate.”

Nate grinned. “Aren’t you from Philadelphia, too?”

“Yes, but I’ve converted since my transfer to Denver.”

“What happens when you’re sent someplace else?”

“I won’t go. Julie and I love Colorado. We plan never to leave.”

That pleased Nate in ways he couldn’t take the time to examine right now. “I’ve lived and traveled all over the world. Each time I come home, I realize how fortunate I was to have been born here.”

“That’s how we feel about living in this state. Fortunate.”

They both unfastened their seat belts and got out of the car.
