Chapter 29

Cal

I've tossed and turned all night thinking of Noelle carrying my baby. The night we shared together was one of the hottest I’ve ever had. It fucking blew my mind. The next morning, I'd woken up, ready to offer her the world if she wanted it, but she hadn't been there.

She'd left me some note talking about how she shouldn't have allowed it to happen. That she was my boss and I was her employee.

It's all fucking noise in my head. I can't take it anymore. 

Glancing over at the clock, I see it's ten thirty pm. I'd gone to bed early hoping to get a good night's sleep, but since it's obvious I'm not going to be getting one tonight, I decide to get up and get dressed. After bundling up in a big puffer jacket, and putting a toboggan on my head, I slip my feet into snow boots and step out into the cold nighttime air. The best thing about living in a small town is the fact you can walk everywhere when needed. It's a quick five-minute jaunt down to the neighborhood bar.
