Elam pulled the tractor to a stop in the side yard and switched off the engine. All in all, he considered tonight a success. His goal was to take Emily out, show her a good time. He thought he’d succeeded on all accounts.

“Danki.” Emily swung down from the tractor like she had been doing it her entire life.

Jah, he admitted that the tractor hadn’t been entirely necessary, but he wanted a little edge. He might be Amish and planning to stay right where he was, but he was modern, progressive even.

“I had a gut time,” he said, climbing down next to her.

Not once had the proposal come up, and that was just the way he planned it. No pressure. A fun evening with just the two of them. And fifty other people who happened to be milling around at the same time.

“Would you like to come inside and warm up before you go home? I’m sure Mamm has some pie left from nachtess.”

He would like nothing more than to stay with Emily for as long as possible, but tonight was about courting, and he was determined to keep it that way. He patted his stomach. “I think I had enough at the Christmas show. Danki, anyway.”

Together they walked up the porch steps.

“Would you just like to come in?”

He shook his head. After their scorching Thanksgiving kiss, it’d be better if he got back on the tractor and hightailed it home. “Four-thirty comes mighty early.”

Her brow puckered into a frown. Had she expected him to jump at the chance to be with her? His goal was to change her expectations, show her a different way. Surprise her.

“It’s better like this,” he said.

“How so?” she asked. Her voice dropped to a low whisper that Elam found hard to resist.

“It gives you more to think about.” He took a step closer to her, loving the way she smelled like outdoors and cinnamon.

“Jah?”

“Gut nacht, Emily.” He pressed a kiss to her forehead, then loped off the porch without a backward glance.
