Broken Bond
I told myself this was for her, to bust her out of the funk she’s been in lately, but were my reasons more selfish than that?
I don’t have time to dwell on that question, because the next thing I know, we reach a break in the trees and the bonfire pit comes fully into view. There are more people here than I expected, lounging on old chairs and overturned logs, dancing to music or casually sipping drinks. On the far side of the fire, Chase and his friends are seated all in a row, with Levi on his right and Callum on his left. Levi’s the first to spot us approaching, jumping up from his chair and making his way over to meet us.
