“The door stuck a little when we unlocked it, which made us chuckle. “Well…it isn’t the best,” Dane said.
“It’s a bit crappy.”
“Yeah, but it’s our crappy place,” he said, closing and locking the door. “I love you.”
I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him. “I love you too. Now which room do you want to fuck me in first?” I teased, earning myself another laugh.
He was right. It was ours, and that was all that mattered. It might not be everyone’s dream come true, but it was pretty perfect if you asked me.”

“I’m gonna come home, Mom, even if it’s not forever. I can take a semester off and then decide if I’ll go back next year. You guys need me here. It might be hard for Dad, and I—”
“You’ll do no such thing,” Dad said, his voice raspy.
“We didn’t mean to wake you,” Mom replied.
“You didn’t. I always wake up when I’m needed.” Dad’s eyes on me were intense. “You’re not comin’ home.”
“You’ve said it yourself, I belong here. You’re my family, and I’m supposed to be working this farm with you.” The words were heavy in my chest.
“No, son. You don’t belong here. And not because we don’t love you or want you. You’re too damn bright a light for this place, and the last thing I want is to go to my grave knowing that my dreams for you dimmed that light.”
“Dad… I…” I didn’t know what to say. Or what to feel, other than loved.
“Nearly dying does a thing to a fella. I just… When I was goin’ down, all I was thinkin’ was, what if I died and my boy thinks I don’t love him? Don’t accept him? And listenin’ to you with your mama right now…you talk about that boyfriend of yours the way I always talked about her. Couldn’t believe she would give me the time a day, if I’m being honest. But I loved her and she loved me, and you love that boy just the same.”
