CHAPTER TEN

Please don’t let it be who I think it is, Micah prayed silently. Oh, dear God, if you ever want to show me a miracle, now would be the time.

Like a robot, he inched his head sideways and winced. Before him stood Joslyn and Cameron Reddington. His mother’s mouth gaped open like a fish. His father’s eyebrows were arched into his head. To make matters worse, Maxine and Lawrence Woods stood next to them, their faces reflecting his parents’. To round off the whole shebang, Donald towered above the others, a huge, sappy grin lighting his face.

“God hates me,” Micah moaned. He pulled away from Savannah, feeling like his flesh had been ripped out of him. Savannah’s cheeks flamed like cherries. The color swept the entirety of her head to her neck. Her hand fumbled with the edge of her sweater. She refused to meet his eyes. He didn’t blame her. Talk about getting caught red-handed with the enemy. By his mother no less!

Well, that wasn’t true. If Savannah was hostile forces, then he’d willingly be a prisoner of war.

“Mom and Dad, hi!” Savannah greeted as she strode away to meet her parents. “I thought you were going to call me to let me know you were on the way.”

“We did, my dear,” Maxine answered as she gave a swift hug to her daughter. When she drew back, there was a definitive gleam in them. “But I take it you didn’t get my message.”

Lawrence cleared his throat. “We can see you were busy.” A swift glance from the older man’s eyes spoke volumes. Micah swallowed a hard lump.

“Hello, my sweet boy!” Joslyn decided to break the awkwardness in the worst way possible—by calling him by his childhood nickname.

Micah suppressed a groan. “Hi, Mom. Dad.” He walked over to them, and Joslyn practically jumped up and hugged him. “I’m so happy to see my sweet boy!” she gushed, slapping him on the back robustly. “It’s been ages.” She drew back and smoothed the material on his shoulders. Micah took in the long, mousy brown hair and the kind, gray eyes that swept over his body as if checking for injury. Despite the fact his mother had interrupted one of the most important moments of his life, he was glad to see her and his father. He bent and hugged her again. He hadn’t realized how much he missed them.

“I’m glad you came, Mr. and Mrs. Reddington,” Savannah said to them. “It means a lot.”

“Now don’t you go calling me ‘Mrs. Reddington’, like you weren’t almost my daughter-in-law and I didn’t catch you in my son’s arms. Give me a hug.”

Cameron and Donald coughed while Micah begged for a hole to open under his feet and send him to oblivion. Savannah was pulled into his mother’s arms before she could do anything more than react. “It’s good to see you, even if it’s under terrible circumstances.”

When Joslyn let go of Savannah, Cameron came up to her. “When we heard, we wanted to make sure we’d be here as soon as we could.
