Coming Home (Homeward Bound Series book 1)
“I croaked.
It hurt. My lip cracked as I spoke and I could taste the metallic flavour instantly. My throat felt like it was lined with sandpaper. Scratchy, burning, and sore all at the same time. I blinked hard. My eyes were crusted with sleep but I had to get my focus. Spencer was in my bedroom. Running my hand through my hair, my fingers caught in a knot. My eyes dropped.
“Pippi…” the soft sound of his voice warmed me.
“What…why are you here? I don’t…I don’t…” I spluttered incohere...ntly. I could barely form words, let alone whole sentences.
“You weren’t answering your phone, so I―”
I couldn’t stop myself. I vaulted from under the covers and straight into Spencer’s arms.
“Whoa…” He laughed but he caught me, and not for a moment did I feel like he was going to drop me. He never would.
“Thank you,”MoreLess
