Chapter Twelve

JEFF WOKE up feeling… normal.

Given the events of the night before, he half expected to feel like crusted-over crap and half like he was walking on a cloud, so the equilibrium was weird.

But Carter wasn’t in bed, which was unacceptable. Jeff felt robbed of a snuggly morning after. Though cuddling with a walking boot on did present a challenge.

In any case, now that he was awake, he wasn’t going to stay in a bed that didn’t have his boyfriend in it. He made a quick detour to the bathroom and then went in search.

Carter was on the floor in the living room, doing crunches in his boot and boxers, because he was a deeply flawed man who did not know how to relax. But Jeff wasn’t going to interrupt him to complain. He watched for a few seconds—he had his own flaws—and then made a strategic retreat to the kitchen for coffee.

When he returned with two mugs a few minutes later, Carter was sitting on the couch like a normal person, looking at his phone. “Oh. Hey,” he said. “I didn’t hear you get up. I didn’t wake you, did I?”

“I sleep fine on a moving tour bus,” Jeff said wryly. He handed over one of the mugs. An idea was taking root in his head, and he wondered if he could pull it off. “You, however, don’t seem to sleep enough no matter where you are.”

Carter shrugged at the accusation but didn’t deny it. “It’s hard to get comfortable with this thing on. I thought about taking it off at night, but uh….” He took a suspiciously quick sip of his coffee.

“But you did it once and it was a bad idea?”

Apparently realizing Jeff wasn’t going to let him off the hook, he admitted, “I rolled over in the middle of the night and woke up in agony.”

Yikes. Jeff hoped he hadn’t injured himself worse. “Well, anyway, I—” He frowned. “Did you bring a bag?” Come to think of it—“How did you even get here? You can’t drive.”

“You’re not the only one who can book a flight. It’s May Two-Four.” Right—the long weekend on which rich Torontonians typically traveled to their cottages to open for the season. Plenty of air traffic out of Toronto, plenty of empty seats to fill on the return.

“But no luggage?” Jeff was confused.

“I didn’t want to presume.”

Ridiculous. “What was I going to do, put you in an Uber?” He shook his head. “Never mind. You’re here now. Can you stay a few days? I don’t know what your work-from-couch schedule looks like.”

“Ha ha.” He considered. “If I had my laptop, yeah, I could stay a few days. I sort of thought you’d want to go back to the Sound, though.”

He did. But if he kept Carter away, he might have to actually slow down and relax. Besides, it could be fun hanging out with him in the city… and Jeff knew just where to take him first. “What are the chances of someone
