Aiden texts me to meet him at the car in an hour. I suppose he wants to make sure the Averys are totally gone. When I climb into the passenger seat, he’s already there, wearing a baseball cap and a pair of shades.

“That was . . .”

“Close,” I finish. “I know.”

He sighs. “We’ll have to be more careful.”

I don’t say anything. It felt so right, holding hands, holding each other without fear. How is this going to work? Where can we be together, if not here?

He reaches across the console and touches my shoulder, almost like he’s reading my mind. “Hey,” he says. “It’ll be okay. We’ll figure this out.” He pauses, then takes off the sunglasses so I can see his eyes. “You’re worth the risk.”

My heart gives a lurch. It’s so easy to ignore my doubts when he touches me. When I look into those hazel eyes, the same gray-green as the foam that skims the beach.

I hesitate. Then I nod.

“We’re worth the risk,” I say.
