    Summary

    The unexpected sound of a door opening behind him, though quiet, startles him out of it. He jumps, eyes flying open, and turns around to see who’s entered. It’s Ted. Of course it’s Ted. It’ll always be Ted, Trent thinks as they make eye contact.

    Ted’s got his green backpack on, holding Keeley’s pink gift bag in one hand. The sight of him like that — packed and ready to depart — makes the hollow feeling claw at Trent’s ribcage. Sharp nails and a fearsome strength. For a moment, they simply look at one another across the press room.

    “Hey, Sport,” Ted says eventually. And his tone is the softest it's been since he broke the Kansas news a week prior.

    Trent grips the side of his manuscript, tight. “Hello, Ted,” he replies.
