Excerpt
How about a good kiss?
A wave of water moved over my feet, and I glanced up to see Eric kneeling in front of me. He wasn’t leaving. “You’re really shaken up, aren’t you?” The thunder made it almost impossible to hear him.
He was still for a moment, but then he moved, and the lightning blinded me. His arms were wrapped around my torso, and he had pulled me into his lap. His embrace startled me, but I couldn’t move.
I didn’t want to move. I relaxed against him, drawn into the moment. I needed this more than anything. It wasn’t until I pressed my ear against his chest that I heard it.
Thud-thump. Thud-thump. Thud-thump. The heartbeat was unmistakable. It was his heartbeat—the dream boy’s—and he was here, with me, holding me, being with me. He wasn’t gone.
“I was afraid you’d never come back,” I whispered against his shirt, unable to move away from the familiar sound I yearned to hear.
“What?” Eric leaned back instead. “What did you just say?”
“Nothing, Shoman,” I muttered, wishing he would move back, but he was moving further away.
He stood up, and his hands shook when they grabbed mine. He pulled me to my feet. “I should probably get you home—” he started to speak, but I intervened.
I kissed him.
