It was closing in on one a.m. when Sara began to feel the length of the day. When she attempted to cover a yawn, Evan took her hand and pulled her up from the sofa. “Looks like you’re on your way out, so I should be, too.”

Sara was torn. Her eyes were drooping, but she hated to let him go, knowing that tomorrow he’d head home. Just the thought of Sunday made her sad. Weekends were so short. Long emails and phone conversations were a poor substitute for the real thing. Their carefree day had confirmed one thing – she wouldn’t mind spending more time with Evan. Reluctantly, she followed him to the door and onto the small stoop outside.

Leaning against the door, she offered a soft smile. “I had a fun time today,” she told him. The day had left her feeling melancholy and content. She hadn’t realized before how growing up together had created such a strong bond between them. The shared background and values created a sense of comfortable intimacy.

“Me, too. I think I’ll come back tomorrow.”

Her smile widened. “You’d better.”

“I’d better let you get some sleep.”

“Yeah. I’ll see you in the morning. We can figure out a plan.” Though they were saying goodbye neither of them actually moved.

“I’ve been thinking about something,” Evan said.

Sara raised her brows. “Something you want to do?”

“Yeah.”

“What is it?”

“This.” His gazed lowered and in one smooth motion, he slid a hand to the small of her back as his lips met hers.

The assault on her senses was immediate. Blood pounded in her ears as fire swept through her. She twined her arms around his neck, and he tightened his grip, pressing her closer.

In a flash, she knew the answer to Morgan’s earlier question, and it rocked her world like an earthquake.
