April had been in relationships before. Not a host of them, but she had one steady boyfriend in high school, a couple of short-term things that fizzled out in college, and one boyfriend that she’d been sure she’d marry. Too bad he decided that taking a job and moving out to California without her was the better choice for his life.

But none of those relationships made her feel the way she had with Clay after only one date. She knew that she was deliriously happy right now because of the attention of a true gentleman and that thought did make her stop for a moment. They’d been out several times since that first date and she liked him more and more each time she was with him.

After that first date, everything about her move to Savannah was new and exciting. And somehow, that one date felt different than every other date she’d ever had. She was comfortable as well as exhilarated, and felt that overall, she was handling this new relationship in a much more mature fashion than she had in the past. But her more mature self still wanted to talk to him all the time.

She liked checking her phone while her students were at their special classes, and seeing text messages from him saying he was thinking about her, or looking forward to their date that weekend.

She was sure that life had never been so good. She had a great job, lived in a great small town, and had an amazing and gorgeous boyfriend. That and Christmas was less than two weeks away now, and she was going to be spending it with Clay and his family.

She knew that might be too much, too soon for a new relationship, but if they were happy, what was the point in taking things slow? She’d only known him a few weeks and she still felt like she could see herself ending up with him. The thought terrified her, but she couldn’t deny how much she really believed it. Being terrified didn’t mean she was unhappy about the prospect of being Clay’s wife.

It was a cold, windy Thursday afternoon when April wandered back into her classroom to collect her coat and purse. She’d just taken the kids to their buses, saying goodbye. Today was the day they all brought home their homemade ornaments made from dough that smelled like gingerbread but dried like clay. She just hoped that she wrapped them well enough so they didn’t break in the kids’ backpacks.

She was just shrugging her coat on when there was a knock at her door. She looked up and saw a woman with dark, curly hair pulled back behind her head peered in at her.

“Principal Hanson,” April said with a broad smile. “To what do I owe this pleasure?”

Principal Hanson stepped into the room, and April’s heart skipped a beat when she saw the tight-lipped smile that she received. “Hi, April. Sorry to bother you as you’re leaving, but do you have a few minutes? There’s something I’d like to talk to you about.
