There wasn’t much to discuss on the way home, at least nothing that would lead back to an unfavorable outcome.
In the passenger seat, Aria sat with her arms crossed and her face pinched into a scowl. It didn’t feel appropriate to coerce her into light conversation, but I hated seeing her so upset. She was banking on getting that new place, but the matter with Timothy was simply one that I couldn’t ignore.
Before I could make the next turn, she finally spoke up. “I need to run some errands. Would you mind dropping me off at the plaza?”
I frowned, but then nodded anyway as I continued going straight. “Uh, sure.”
By the time we reached the plaza, Aria was already taking off her seatbelt and gathering her purse. She muttered a quick “thanks” before letting the door slam behind her. I would have pressed on and tried to amend things in any normal
situation.
However, I had already made the decision to find a certain someone and demand some answers from him.
I spent my drive to the sports center debating what I’d say. Honestly, there was a good chance that he wouldn’t even be there. The teams hardly practiced on Fridays, from what I recalled.
Still, I was prepared to catch him by surprise if need be. He could worm his way out of a conversation through text or a phone call, but a confrontation might stun him into submission. I felt more confident with this decision as I jumped out of my car and speed walked to the entrance.
Upon entry, there was the usual sound of pucks clanking together and skates skidding along the ice. I drowned it all out and followed my usual path to the team’s lounge. There was a sweet, tangy scent drifting out of the lounge as I came closer.
Things hadn’t gone so well with that last time, particularly with Timothy
threatening him. He seemed to be pretty well–mannered, so Timothy’s outburst was troubling.

Of course, it could’ve just been another case of Timothy butting into my life.
As I got closer, I spotted a figure moving around behind the glass window of the lounge. It didn’t take long before I figured out it was Timothy, who was cooking. something in the microwave. Guess I was catching him during his lunch.
I opened the door and slipped inside, although he hardly noticed my presence with his back turned. He plopped down on the sofa and switched on the TV before starting on his meal.
“Hey,” I said, trying to sound as stern as possible.
He jerked in reflex, then twisted around with a perplexed look that was comical when combined with his cheeks stuffed with food. He blinked at me for a moment, then swallowed harshly before setting down what looked like a burrito bowl down on the seat beside him.
“Evie?” He stood abruptly and started marching toward me. “Is something wrong?”
My lips parted just as he came to tower over me. His hands hovered over my shoulders as he looked me over, as though searching for injuries.
“No,” I said faintly, forced to inhale the woodsy scent of his musk. “It’s about the apartment.”
He furrowed his eyebrows and glanced to the side. “Apartment? What apartment?”
I huffed. “The one you discussed with my roommate,” I told him. When his confusion seemed to deepen, I added, “The luxury apartments downtown.”
