„Zeke?“ Casey stopped the bike in front of the Tyler's house, blinking wild. „What are you doing? It looks as if you are moving out.“
The elder boy put the box down onto the ground and turned around. „And if I do? Why do you care?“
„Because...“ Shocked, Casey gasped for air. „Because...“ No, this couldn't be. It had to be just a stupid joke. „This is your home.“
„Wrong. It's the house of my stepfather. They got divorced two months ago; he wants me to move out. It is that easy.“
„But who can he do that? And your mom, why isn't she here with you?“
Zeke pulled the face. „Casey, when will you finally learn that your perfect family is not the normal case nowadays? She's on a cruise with her new lover, to enjoy her freedom. The last she is interested in at the moment is me.“
Casey swallowed hard; yes, he had always wondered about Zeke's parents' absence, but this was worse than anything he had imagined. No wonder that he was like he was; a rebel, not willing to accept any rules, a lonely wolf, who let no one closer into his life. „And what are you doing now,“ he asked.
Zeke shrugged. „Maybe I will sleep in the GTO for a while.“
„But that's not a solution to your problem.“
„Do you know a better one,“ Zeke huffed. „No need to worry, I'm used to it to take care of myself.“
„Maybe you could move in with us.“
„Me? Moving in into the Connor's oh-so-perfect home?“ Zeke looked flabbergasted. „Perhaps sharing a room with you? Sounds batshit crazy.“
Casey blushed slightly. „We have a guestroom. I'm sure my mom won't mind. And it will be only for some nights until you've figured out what to do next. Don't be an idiot; you can't live in a car during the coldest months of the year.“
After a while of silence, Zeke smirked. „Okay, I might give it a try. But I tell you, if your mom starts to make lunchboxes with orange juice and chocolate cookies for me, I am out.“
