CADE

The banging on the bedroom door doesn’t stop, so I know it’s not Neil. He’d knock a few times, yell that it was him and say whatever he needed to, then leave. Whoever is on the other side of the door isn’t going away. And none of the guesses I have as to who is out there are people I actually want to face.

Nevertheless, I slide out of bed and make my way to the door and open it.

Dustin.

From his furious expression, it’s not going to be a fun brotherly catching-up moment, but I tell him anyways, “Come on in,” and drop onto the corner of the bed. He looks around the guest room that I’ve been crashing in since he invited our father to stay at his place.

“You haven’t been home in days. Are you ever gonna come back?”

“Is Dad still there?” My question doesn’t receive a response, and Dustin only glances away from me. “Answers my question. And the answer to yours is no, not while he’s there.”

“Cade, I get it. But I’m still your brother and your guardian. Yes, you’re eighteen, but don’t you think I deserve a little respect after everything I’ve sacrificed for you?”

“You deserve more than respect but take a moment to consider why you were put in the position to raise me. Why would you have to tend to your kid brother who had two able-bodied parents? And I appreciate it, but why don’t you take some of this irritation and direct it towards one half of the equation that set this whole situation up from the start.” I wave my hands around the room.

Dustin just shakes his head. “Fine. Stay away from home as long as you want. But you will keep the other obligations you have to me.”

“Like what? Playing precious football?” The game was awesome. Once I got out of my head at least. But then Morgan King happened, and now all I can see is her back on the way out the door after we fucked. Why had I given in? Why had I allowed her to embed her claws deeper within me?

“Yes. Football. Coach said you were supposed to meet with him this morning at Crescent Fleur to go over a game plan for Friday. The Cardinals aren’t a team to take lightly, and Coach wants to help you prepare.” Dustin takes a dramatic look at his watch. “It’s noon and you don’t look like you’re heading that way any time soon.” He walks over to my bag and tosses it to me. “Find something to wear or we can stop at the apartment to get something decent. But we’re leaving here in five minutes.”

Yeah. Because golf at his country club is gonna prepare me for the game. I should probably just be thankful he didn’t want me to meet at the house again. Hopefully after Morgan’s last miserable wait at the Crescent Fleur, she will opt out of going. Please, for the love of everything holy, don’t let her be there.
