The day after the bonfire dawned cloudy and turbulent. Fitting, Arlo thought. It matched his mood. Last time he checked, his moods couldnât affect the weather, though. At least he hadnât managed to do it before. Just the thought of that kind of power scared the hell out of him â heâd stick to baking, thanks.
He hadnât gotten anywhere with Gray the night before, unless a scared look and a stolen kiss counted. Arlo didnât think they counted. Even worse. His mother and Sofia were leaving in a couple of hours. As much as it had been strange to see his sister and mom in Baxter Hollow at first, heâd gotten used to their presence the past few days, how their perfume and clothes filled his little apartment, and their laughter made even the quietest hours at his cafe cheerful.
Thunderheads rolled over Baxter Hollow as Arlo got ready for work. Didnât look like the weather was going to clear for the day. Arloâs mom and sister packed their bags, and walked to the bakery with him for breakfast. He was sad to see them go, felt like the dark clouds were some sort of a sign that they should stay and help him untangle the mess heâd made of his heart since heâd arrived in town.
âThereâs something in the air today,â his mother murmured. She looked up at the sky and shivered. Arlo had learned long ago not to ignore his motherâs feelings when it came to things like that.
âBad?â He asked.
Emmaline shook her head. âNo, uneasy. Thereâs a change coming. I donât know what. You know itâs never specific like that.â
Arlo tried to feel it, whatever his mother sensed in the air, but he didnât. All he could feel was Gray, out there somewhere driving Arlo insane, day after day.
âI wish you two didnât have to leave,â Arlo said. He never forgot about them on the road, but his life was separate from home, from family. Now that theyâd been in his space and made a place for themselves in it, he realized how much he missed them. How much he always missed them when they werenât around, even if it wasnât in the forefront of his mind.
âI know baby. Come see us soon, okay?â Emmaline ruffled his hair. âChristmas is still a long way away.â
âI know.â Arlo echoed. He figured he should make it home more often. It was always so good to be there, to be encompassed by his familyâs warmth, by the place heâd spent so many years growing and learning, but at the same time the itch came back so quickly. He never stayed long. Arlo wondered what was wrong with him.
