I huffed and headed down the short hall to the main bedroom and pushed the door open. Coleman was on the bed, curled up asleep. It wasn’t that late, but if he was tired, fine. He wore shorts made out of sweats material and one of my old Midnight Hunt T-shirts. I kicked off my sneakers and crawled up on the bed behind him, making the big spoon. I nuzzled his short, dark hair. It was always so perfect, but I loved messing it up. I ruffled it before pulling him closer. “You okay, babe?”

“Yeah. Just thinking about things.”

“Oh? What kind of things?”

“Well…I know you’re not supposed to start new things so soon after rehab, but I feel like we’ve been together a long time.”

“We’re not new, Cole.”

“No, but I don’t want you to go to your place. Maybe you can sell it and move in with me. Officially.”

“Permanently?”

“Yes.”

I flipped him over on his back and hovered over him. I kissed him gently. “I want that too.”

“Yeah?”

“Fuck yeah.”

He pounced on me, shoving me to the other side of the bed and attacking my mouth like he had a mission. I let him, loving a forceful and aggressive Coleman.

“Need you, babe.”

“You got me. Anytime. I love you, Coleman.” Since rehab, those three words came easier and easier.

“I love you too. Now get naked.”

Songs

Pine Box

Lyrics by Ziggy; Music by Midnight Hunt & Bramble Punk Band

You threw my heart in a pine box

My love went deep, six feet

Can’t claw by way back—nowhere left to dance

No drums to beat

With me you buried another chance

There’s no second chance

There’s no second chance

I’ve been running on fumes

Running for my life
