“Here try these and jump in the shower to get warmed up.” Colt closed the door without looking at Dean.
Dean chuckled to himself. A caring guy and a grump all rolled into one.
The shower was just what he needed for his sore and frozen muscles. He didn’t want to get out of the thick stream of hot water, but he didn’t want to use all the hot water either. Just as he was about to get out, the door whipped opened.
“Sorry, I have to pee. It’s too cold to go outside.”
Dean stood in the shower, amazed at Coop’s carefree nature. A black nose sniffed through the curtain of the shower. Dean assumed it was the mutt he saw earlier and smiled.
“Sorry about that.” Coop laughed and ran back out of the room, slamming the door behind him
Dean smiled to himself. That was one cute kid. Dean finished his shower, got dressed, and stepped out of the bathroom.
“Coop, can you grab a few more logs and throw them in the fire while I crank up the generator to make sure it’s ready if we lose power?”
