When I saw him I knew - I had been waiting for something just like this. 

And then, in the blink of an eye, he was gone. 

After giving up a lucrative career in Seattle, I was content with my life in Gig Harbor, taking care of my father during his battle with cancer. Until I met Garrett and he showed me what my life was missing. 

Passion. Desire. Love. 

Two weeks was nothing but to us it was everything. We scrambled to make the most of our short time together but bitter jealousy, painful truths and devastating grief forced Garrett and I to prove to one another that love can grow almost instantly. 

The memories we created were supposed to last, were supposed to carry us through our darkest moments. But what if Garrett doesn’t return? What if I never feel something just like this again?

“I have something kind of awkward to ask,” Garrett said quietly once we left the bar and were in the car headed back to my house. I was itching to ask him about his text messages, to have him say the words he had typed aloud, but I couldn’t help but wonder how much influence the liquid courage provided by alcohol had on his bold declaration. When he finally said them to me, he needed to be stone-cold sober.

“Okay,” I replied.

“Can I stay in your guest house until I deploy? Palmer kind of kicked me out.”

Under my breath, I muttered, “Asshole.” Palmer seriously needed to grow up and get a clue. There was never going to come a day when I was going to change my mind. He needed to accept that and move on. Otherwise, we couldn’t be friends.

“Yes, of course,” I told him. “I kind of have a favor of my own to ask.”

“Whatever it is, the answer is yes.”

I winced. “You should probably wait until you know what it is first.”

“Fine. What can I help you with?”

“I’d like you to meet my father,” I said timidly.

The car became uncomfortably silent, and I didn’t have to look at Garrett to know he wasn’t expecting me to ask that.

“He asked about you today,” I elaborated. “He wanted to know if you’re handy around the house.”

Garrett chuckled softly. “I know enough to get by. Why did he ask?”

I explained to him how Valerie embarrassed me when we went to visit my dad. “I didn’t really want to tell him,” I admitted. “But I think he wants to know that I’ll be taken care of after he’s gone.”
