Chapter 19: The North Shore
The cabin stood a mile up a plowed road on the North Shore, in the pines.
The frozen lake lay below it, white to the horizon.
Teddy stepped out of the truck into thirty below and screamed.
"It's a dry cold," Zack said.
"It's a lie cold."
"Get inside, you baby."
Inside was a main room with a stone fireplace, a woodstove, a rag rug and one huge bed in the loft.
Anders had lit all of it.
He stood at the stove in a flannel shirt and wool socks, stirring a pot with a wooden spoon.
Teddy stopped in the doorway.
In four months he had seen Anders in black wool, in a tuxedo, in a towel, in nothing.
He had never seen him in flannel with the sleeves pushed up, looking domestic and slightly worried about soup.
"What?" Anders said.
"Nothing. You're cute," Teddy said.
"I'm thirty-four."
"You're thirty-four and cute."
Zack dropped his duffel and laughed.
They spent three days like that.
They snowshoed on the lake and Zack carried Teddy back when his legs gave out.
Anders burned the pancakes and Zack salvaged them.
