***

The scene played out again in my mind as we approached Mt. Bachelor in silence. It was all so long ago, but still so close. I could almost touch that one memory it was so vivid and big and real, slicing at my heart.

He was going too fast.

He passed cars that were going slow as Metallica filled the car, drum solos pounding behind our conversation. We were talking about school, about Amanda, about how she didn’t like that we were hanging out together so much. Amanda knew what was developing. She had sensed something was happening between us. She knew that Jesse loved me.

“Okay, don’t get mad,” he said as we drove. Big flakes were falling and sticking to the car. There were thick patches of ice on the road. “I didn’t tell her you were coming up with me today. I told her I needed to think about our relationship on my own. So if she asks, you weren’t here.”

A wave of guilt flooded through me. I didn’t like lying, didn’t like sneaking around. And I didn’t want to be the cause of the breakup. It made me feel terrible. But it was obvious, and Jesse knew my feelings for him had changed since the night when we had kissed.

We loved each other.

“Don’t worry, Craigers, I’ll fix this. It’ll all be fine,” he said as he placed his hand on my thigh and the music was loud and my heart thumped like crazy and I felt so good inside.

“I don’t love her. I love you. I always have. I wish it hadn’t played out like this, but I’ve been waiting for you since we were kids,” he said, his green eyes melting into mine. “I’m not ever letting you go.”

And then we hit the ice.
