Excerpt:
The
night is nothing short of perfect. The air is warm, there’s barely any wind,
and the moon is young, so the sky is dark, laced with thousands of stars. We
find our spot along the beach, well away from the other stargazers, and set
down our sleeping bags, a couple of blankets, and our cooler.
Our
eighties playlist is playing softly in the background while we enjoy the night.
Daniel takes photos, and every so often he shows me an image he’s caught on
camera. I’m in awe. He really is amazing. The way he sees the world is so
different from how most of us do – angles and frames and visions that capture
the beauty of everything that surrounds us, including the stars. Even in the
dark, I can see a twinkle in his eyes, that same look he has when he picks up
his camera. Confident. In charge. Sexy.
I
squeeze in between Daniel and the telescope and lean into the eyepiece. I’m
instantly fascinated by what I see. The star flickers like it’s dancing in the
sky. There are hues of red and orange and gold, and it sparkles like a gem.
I’m
equally distracted because Daniel is standing right behind me. He hasn’t moved
an inch. His chest presses against my back, and I tense for a moment, unsure of
his intent. His scent makes its way to me, and my eyes flutter closed for an
instant. I inhale and savor the way he makes me feel. My initial tense reaction
gives way to a new one – one that confuses me and excites me all at the same
time. Goosebumps cover my arms, and my breath hitches in my throat. I can’t
help but shiver from the sparks that travel through my body.
His
response is not what I expect. Yet, even though I’m afraid to admit it to
myself, it’s quite possibly what I hoped for. He wraps his arms around me so
they criss-cross just above my waist. He starts to rub my arms, warming my skin
and melting the goosebumps – and my whole body. My mind is screaming, Do not cross
the friendship boundary! No good can come of it. Thank goodness for my sensible
brain. Too bad I don’t always listen to it.
On
that thought, I can’t help but relax into him. His strong, lean frame envelops
me, and I’m aware of the contours of his body and the heat that radiates
between us. I nestle into his shoulder and look up at the stars above us. He
buries his nose in my hair and inhales deeply. Here, away from the city lights,
it seems as though it’s just Daniel and me and our newfound closeness.
“Hey,
there’s a shooting star.” I point to where it’s trailing across the sky. “Did
you see it?”
“Hope
you made a wish,” he whispers in my ear, and I swear his lips graze my skin. I
shiver again, unable to control my reaction.
