After we get to the top of the hill, Seth takes us to where the Golden Delicious apples are, and along with a few other varieties, we end up with six full bags of fruit by the time we're done. My thighs flex tightly as we walk back down the steep hill. "I think we've got enough apples for two months' worth of pie," I say.

Seth chuckles. "Maybe for witches, but have you forgotten how much pizza I ate last night?"

"I—" The uneven ground makes me stumble, and I fall to my knees while my bags of apples thud on the ground.

Seth stops moving to rush to me. "Are you okay?"

"The apples!" I cry out because many of the ones that spilled out of my bags are rolling down the hill. I scramble to my feet and begin to run to save them.

Seth joins me and gets to them faster, but when he tries to stop, the momentum from the pitch of the hill must be too much, because he doesn't halt in time. He steps on an apple, and I gasp when his arms fly up in an attempt to hold on to his balance. It doesn't work, and he goes down. Hard.

"Seth!" I move quickly to drop by his side. "Oh my gosh, are you okay?"

He squeezes his eyes shut and lets out a strangled noise. "I'm fine." He opens his emerald-green eyes to look at me. "But my ego is suffering right now."

"Aw." I flash to when I made a fool of myself in front of him and reach out to smooth his hair back. "I think it's cute that even a warrior falls."

He closes his eyes again as he lets out a groan. I know better than anyone how it feels to be embarrassed like this, and I think Seth needs to be distracted from his self-loathing, so I lean down and kiss him. It's the right thing to do, because he responds by cradling my head and kissing me back.

When Seth lifts up on his elbow, I think about how we're in a place where small children are and resist the urge to push Seth to the ground and lie on top of him. It's a good thing, too, because we hear a sweet little voice.

"Hi, Mr. Brewster."

Seth jerks away from me, and I see a boy who appears to be about five. His blue eyes seem too big for his face as he blinks at us.

"Hey, Stuart," says Seth. He chuckles as he smooths down his hair and picks up an apple. "Would you look at the mess we made? Now we have to pick up all the apples."

"Stuart!" A woman comes rushing over and grabs the boy's hand as her expression relaxes with her apparent relief. She looks at us as Seth scrambles to his feet. "Mr. Brewster." She smiles. "I should have known."

"Hi, Karen," says Seth as I stand up too. When the mother glances at me, he quickly says, "This is my friend Nina.
