Leave the Lights On
“Parker was never late for anything but he’d been due to arrive home an hour ago and he was nowhere in sight. She tried his phone but again it went straight to voicemail. Stop worrying—he’s fine.
She scolded herself, not just for worrying that maybe something was wrong, but for worrying about who he was with. Ever since the week before, when he’d told her about running into Chrissie and how unhappy she seemed, Sophie had a nagging feeling she couldn’t shake. What if he’s still in love with her? ...What if he wants to rescue her? She knew Parker. He hated seeing people in distress. What if… It was too horrible to think about, yet she couldn’t shake the thoughts. He’d never do that to me. Would he? She was about to dial again when her phone rang. Oh, thank God.
“Hey,” she said.
“Hey. Sorry I didn’t call.”
“That’s okay. Where are you? We’re gonna be really late.” Her stomach turned over as she waited for his reply.
“Yeah, about that.” Parker paused. “I can’t go.” Oh my God.MoreLess
