Chapter 14
Standing at the living room window, Tristan sipped on a glass of spiced rum, watching the snowflakes dance in the sunlight. In the background, Frank Sinatra was singing about having a merry Christmas and Tristan sighed, trying not to think of Rain.
He set his glass down on the coffee table and searched through the open box of Christmas decorations he’d found at the bottom of his storage closet. While Philip was at school this afternoon, Tristan had decided he’d surprise him and Rain with a Christmas tree in the apartment, and after lugging a tree home from the temporary tree lot in the park, he’d spent a few hours carefully decorating it. It had helped with taking his mind off Rain being with Milo, but now, all there was left to hang on the tree, was the top star.
