I opened my mouth to suggest he sleep on our couch when Levon stepped forward. "There"s a deer couple that runs a bed and breakfast not far from here. I"d be happy to drive you."
Dylan agreed, and we said goodbye. Levon winked at me as he shut the door. "Be back soon."
A confused mess, I turned to the kitchen. It was late, the party had run into the night. But even late, I needed to work out my energy while I waited on Levon to return home.
So, I scrubbed. I heard Cas and Kerry talking quietly in the living room, but I ignored them and got out a bottle of bleach and a sponge.
When Levon returned home a half hour later, I wasn"t finished.
"You okay, Lo?" he asked, using a pet name he"d started calling me.
"I don"t know," I said tersely. "I"m mad."
"At us?"
"Maybe a little," I said.
