Jesse

I don’t know what came over me, but I suddenly wanted Hannah and I couldn’t wait another minute. My loft was above the barn on the back end of the property. Several years ago my dad, Zinger, helped remodel the space. It used to be where all the hay was stored but then we built another barn and this one sat untouched for a few years. Right now, it was the perfect place to disappear with the one woman who currently had my body in overdrive.

“How did you luck out and get your own place?” Hannah tightened her grip on my hand as we walked up the stairs to the loft.

“I noticed the potential and asked my dad to help make it happen.” Which was the truth. Levi was focused on other things and didn’t seem interested when I mentioned the possibilities with the barn. So I took what I wanted, just like I was doing at this very moment.

We reached the top step and she stopped to look around. “Levi is the oldest though.”

“I’m still the smartest.” I walked over to the small kitchen.

“Jesse.” She sounded shocked.

“What? It’s the truth.” I held up two bottles. “Want some of his hard cider?”

“Oh yeah.” She quickly walked over. “I love this stuff.”

“Did you try the fried apple pie flavor yet?” I clinked my bottle against hers. “We wasted several gallons trying to get it right.”

“Is this the fried apple pie flavor?” she asked and turned the bottle so she could see the label. “Oh, cherry. Do you have some here? I haven’t tasted it yet.”

“Hold on, let me go find some.” I ran back down the steps and didn’t stop running until I reached the barn where Levi stored all the extra bottles of cider. There were two six-packs I had stored behind a cabinet.

“What are you doing?” Levi said from behind me.

“Grabbing my secret stash of cider.” I held them up.

“Secret.” He scowled. “And why the hell are you hiding bottles?”

“What if you ran out?” I shrugged my shoulders. “Gotta go.” I turned and carefully ran back to my loft.

“Jesse,” Levi yelled from behind me.

“I can’t talk right now,” I said and never turned around. “Don’t worry, I’ll find a new secret spot.”

As I stepped back into the barn and looked up the steps, I thought about what was about to happen. A part of me wondered if I was making the wrong decision. The other part was telling me to stop overthinking and get my ass up the stairs. “Okay,” I held up the two six packs and was trying to talk while completely out of breath. “The samples.”

“Where did you go to get them?” She ran over and grabbed the bottles from my hands. “Jesse, I could’ve tried it another day.”

I collapsed onto the bar stool at the kitchen island. “It’s cool.” I held my hand up. “Except for the part where I have to find a new secret hiding space.”

She burst out laughing as she popped the cap off one of the bottles.
