“I hate that you’re leaving already,” Peyton said as she hugged her sister for the tenth time in so many minutes. “Please consider staying a little longer.”

“We’ve been over this, Pey. I need to go.” Pulling back, her sister smiled at her. “You know, you could come to Florida for a few days. There’s a guest room just waiting for you.”

“You know I can’t just pack up and take time off. I did that last month for the trade show.”

“And look how great that worked out!” she said with a sassy wink.

Peyton felt herself blush. “Anyway…”

“Anyway, I am so happy for you. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you smile so much. Ryder’s a great guy and it’s obvious he’s crazy about you.”

She nodded because she refused to agree out loud for fear of jinxing herself. But…she really did think Ryder was serious about her. It wasn’t about sex and chemistry–although those were off the charts–but there was a connection there on so many levels that it sometimes scared her. There was a time not so long ago that she hated him–like seriously hated him–so being where they are right now was nothing short of a miracle.

Taking her hands, Parker smiled at her. “You have no idea how happy and jealous I am right now. Everything is falling into place for you and you deserve all of it. You’ve worked hard and were so patient and…I just love you.”

Now she was going to cry.

Pulling her sister in for yet another hug, she squeezed extra hard this time. “I love you too.”

Outside, a horn blasted. “That’s my ride,” Parker said as she pulled away.

“You know I would have driven you. You didn’t need to call an Uber.”

“It’s just easier this way. Besides, I already forced Ryder to sleep alone last night so you and I could have our sleepover, so…”

“We’re adults and can handle a night away from each other. We don’t always have to be together, you know.”

“Peyton, if I were lucky enough to be sleeping with a man who looked like Ryder, I’d be pissed if anyone kept me away from that.” She kissed her on the cheek. “Just something for you to keep in mind should I ever have the opportunity to have a sex life.”

“Oh, stop. I’m sure you…”

The horn sounded again and they both pouted. “I need to go.”

“Call me when you land so I know you’re okay.”

With a dramatic eye roll, Parker promised as she walked out the door. Maybe it was silly, but she still walked over to the window and watched as the car pulled away. Tears stung her eyes and rather than fight the tears, she let them fall. It was such a cliché, but her sister truly was her best friend and she hated living so far away.

But what she hated more was the way Parker was keeping a part of herself a secret. Peyton didn’t believe for a minute that her sister didn’t know what she wanted to do with her life or that she didn’t want to move back to Magnolia.
