Chapter 21: Rhett's Turn

The knocking started at ten past two in the morning.

It wasn't loud.

It was the slow, uncertain knock of someone who had been standing on a porch for a while.

Clark was beside me before I had my feet on the floor.

"Don't open it," I whispered.

"I'm not going to."

He stood very still, looking at the wall of the bedroom, and through it at the stairs and the front door.

"It's Rhett."

My whole body went cold.

"Is Dax with him?"

"No. No one's behind him. He's alone, and he's soaked, and he's holding a laptop bag against his chest like a baby."

I pulled on my sweatshirt.

When we reached the bottom of the stairs, Laney was already in the hall in her pajamas, holding a rolling pin in both hands.

"If he says one word about butter," she said, "I'm going to hit him."

"Fair," Clark said.

I opened the door on the chain.

Rhett stood on the porch in the rain, in the same Vott hoodie, with his buzzed blond head bare and his huge shoulders hunched.
