Really good s*x was supposed to alleviate tension. It was supposed to make you feel like you could do anything. I was supposed to… not be with my son’s boss.
I couldn’t face him. Ever. If I could, I would just freaking move. But I had two boys in school, debts to pay, and a job that I actually enjoyed.
Hudson Grant wasn’t going to ruin my life. He wasn’t in my life. And he wasn’t ever going to be.
I hid out the rest of thanksgiving weekend. I worked, and I spent time with my kids and I tried to figure out how I was going to afford to buy them things for Christmas.
Joey and I had a tentative truce, but it was very tentative. He didn’t say anything else about college or SATs or anything. He went to school, went to work, and helped out at home.
Matty could sense things weren’t normal
