More than Thankful

Harmony

Walking back toward Preston’s parents’ house, I tried to push away the look of disappointment in Preston’s eyes when I’d said we were friends. My heart was beating so hard and my mind was spinning.

That kiss. Good Lord, that kiss was amazing. I couldn’t even begin to imagine how far things would have gone had Preston’s brother Wes not shown up.

Closing my eyes, I took in a deep breath and blew it out as I opened my eyes and put a smile on my face. Turning around, I saw that Preston and his brother were a good ways behind me talking. I didn’t mean to take off like I did. I needed to put some space between us. We both just admitted having feelings for each other and I needed to think this through.

Hearing someone driving down the driveway, I turned to look and saw a truck pulling up. As the driver honked the horn, the truck stopped and I saw Angie running out of the house.

A tall, dark-haired guy got out of the truck and caught Angie in his arms while he spun her around. Smiling, I was guessing this was Finn. As I drew closer, I noticed he was yet another good-looking guy. Man, this family has good genes.

Stopping a few feet back, I watched Angie and Jenn greet Finn.

Wes and Preston walked by me and made their way over to Finn. The love in this family was amazing. My heart broke slightly as I realized the only person I had was Jake. Looking away, I stared off into the pasture as I chewed on my lower lip.

“Finn! Come meet Harmony,” Angie said.

Glancing at the group, I smiled as Preston walked up with his brother. Finn gave me a quick once-over and smiled. Wow. His smile was almost as amazing as Preston’s.

“Finn, this is Harmony, a friend of mine. She’s spending Thanksgiving with us.”

My smile faltered briefly as I peeked at Preston and saw nothing but coldness in his eyes.

Turning my attention back to Finn, I shook his hand and tried not to let my voice crack as I talked. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Finn.”

“The pleasure is all mine. I see my baby brother’s taste in friends has improved.”

Everyone laughed as I let out a nervous chuckle. Preston smiled as he walked around me and headed into the house. Turning, I wanted to call out to him, but I was frozen. I knew why he was upset with me. The look in his eyes spoke more than words ever could.

Placing her hand on my arm, Angie led me back into the house. “Tonight is game night! You better keep your eyes open; the boys like to cheat.”

Giving her a slight chuckle, I nodded and said, “Got it.”

I spent the rest of the evening with Angie and Jenn as we finished up some things for Thanksgiving dinner the next day. I hadn’t seen Preston since dinner. As soon as he and the boys cleared the table, he excused himself along with Finn and they disappeared.
