Malena

They held hands on the drive home. Tyler told her stories about all the trouble he’d gotten himself into in high school. “The tides turned when I got arrested and sent to juvie my senior year. It was sheer stupidity. I was dealing pot. I didn’t even smoke the stuff. Some old dudes had approached me one day and said I could make some serious cash if I’d deal to my classmates. I was poor and I went for it.”

“Oh no!” She said.

“Juvie was actually a gift in disguise. That turned things around for me. Suddenly it was no longer cool or fun and games. I realized that if I didn’t get my shit together, that could become my life. I didn’t want that. My mom had worked too hard to raise me, all by herself. It about broke her heart.”

Malena felt her heart melting and squeezed his hand.

“So, short version, I cleaned up my act. There’s a lot more to my story but I’ll leave it at that for tonight.” He put on his turn signal and pulled onto the lane leading back to the ranch.

After he parked, he turned to face her. “Can you come to my cabin for a little while?”

“Yes,” she said, softly.

He caressed her cheek then unbuckled and hopped out to open the car door for her.

Once inside the cabin, he flipped on the lights and took her coat. “Here, have a seat in front of the fireplace. I’ll start a fire.”

“Okay. Can I use your restroom first?”

He pointed to the hallway. “Sure, it’s on the right.”

“Si, I prepared it for you.”

“Oh yeah, sorry, I forgot. Thanks.”
