Dove

The next day, Dove felt she was floating on cloud nine. She always imagined a horse ride would be scary. What with the dangers and the lack of control. But it went as smoothly as Burley promised. She actually enjoyed their ride together. She might not mind going on another ride sometime, which was definitely saying something.

Yet the horse ride wasn’t even the best part of the day. It was that break she took at the lake with Burley. When he held her in his arms, at that beautiful place, and told her how happy she made him. She smiled now just thinking back on it.

She was in her car, her own car this time, driving the meandering road into town. Pop music played on the speakers. She was alone, making an errand run for some supplies that wouldn’t need a truck to transport. The autumn scenery was worthy of a painting, but her thoughts were on Burley.

She meant it when she said he made her happy too. What was she going to do when it came time to go home? Did he want her to stay? She wondered that, as she recalled his comment about the city having nothing like that beautiful view at the lake. Had that been a hint? She didn’t know, but it troubled her thinking about leaving him.

Would he consider moving to the city with her? If she sold the house and the horses, there wouldn’t be anything holding him here anyway, right? That was definitely a conversation they needed to have. Something that she couldn’t resolve thinking about it on her own.

She never expected to meet the man of her dreams when she came out to Heart’s Peak. That described Burley perfectly, didn’t it? He made her feel so happy. So safe. So comfortable. Even when they argued, it never took long for them to be smiling at each other again. It felt so easy with him. So wonderfully perfect.

She parked outside of the hardware store and fished out her phone. She went to her image gallery and pulled up a picture she had taken yesterday. She finally took some of him before they got back on the horses. He had insisted she take one of the both of them. That’s what she looked at now. Burley, looking just as handsome in a photo as he did in real life, with his arm around her. The mountains were behind them, with the sun kissing the snowcaps. She wore a bright smile and she coaxed a smile out of him too.

It was possibly her most favorite picture ever. Looking at his face on her screen gave her a bubbly warm feeling. She felt like a schoolgirl reading some secret note from her crush.

She could stare at the pictures all day if she let herself. She had already looked at them a lot. Partly because she had to send one to Aria, of course, but mostly because they just made her happy. Burley made her happy.
