#Rev (GearShark #2) (34 page)

Besides, buying a house was an investment in our future, the one we had together. Trent couldn’t argue with that.

Ivy was designing the place because when we were asked about finishes, I said I liked black and Trent announced he didn’t care.

Ivy was appalled, so she took over. I made her promise not to make it look like a bunch of girls lived there, and from what I’d seen so far, she was doing a good job. Until the houses were finished, we all still lived where we always had. Trent had moved in right after he handed the presidency over to Zach.

He graduated last month, and his mom didn’t come.

But Granny did.

I went and got her and drove her to campus myself as a surprise.

It was the first time I’d ever seen T cry.

She cried, too, and then she asked me to floor it because she liked to drive fast.

Yeah, Granny was still my favorite person for life.

I still hadn’t talked to my father, though my mom called me every once in a while. I talked to her because I loved her, but it wasn’t the same. I knew she called when Dad wasn’t home and she probably didn’t tell him. She told me my father missed me and followed my career in
GearShark
and in the papers. She also said he cried when he read the article on Trent.

I wasn’t sure I believed her, but I hoped maybe someday he would come around.

Overall, we were happy and I had no regrets. Regret was a waste of time.

Trent’s hand settled over the back of my neck as I drove, and he played with the short strands of hair.

“Hey, Forrester,” he said.

“Yeah, frat boy?”

“I’m so glad my heart chose you.”

Reaching around, I pulled his hand around and pressed my lips to center of his palm.
Not as glad as I am.

“I’ll take care of it, T.” I vowed.

I’d take better care of it than my own.

It was the easiest promise I ever made.
