We eat dinner at a beautiful restaurant perched on a cliff overlooking the Pacific. Walker and I order a dish to share, and he carefully serves me, putting more food than I can possibly eat on a plate and setting it in front of me before he takes a bite himself.

I look around the restaurant, and I can’t help but notice how romantic it is. I wonder briefly if Walker chose it for that reason, then mentally shake my head. Why would he pick a romantic restaurant? We’re just friends.

“Another Kevin recommendation?” I ask Walker.

He nods and smiles. “You never should have told him we were on our honeymoon.”

I try not to let his words sting. We’re just friends. I can’t want more.

After we finish dinner and a bottle of wine, we go down to the white-sand beach near the Lamplighter Inn. It’s a beautiful night, and the full moon reflecting on the water makes it easy to see.

“How’s McKenzie?” I ask as we walk along the shoreline.

“Great. I talked to her briefly before I talked to Noah. She sounds good. Happy. But she’s different. Noah brings out a side of her I’ve never seen before. She couldn’t stop talking about how cool diving had been. Can you imagine the McKenzie we know even swimming in the deep end of a pool, much less diving?” He shakes his head in wonder.

“No, I can’t,” I say in disbelief. “I wish I could have talked to her.” I miss my best friend, especially now. Not that I could have asked her all the things I really wanted to know, or told her all the things that have happened since she left. It would have taken at least an hour and required being out of earshot of both Noah and Walker.

“I know. She wanted to talk to you too. But you were in the shower, and they had plans…”

“It’s okay. Any leads on Liam?”

Walker nods. “Actually, it sounds like Liam was there about a month before he died. The dive master who operates the outfit that took them out recognized his picture. They’re going to check around and see if anyone else remembers seeing him, and if they can figure out where he went while he was there.”

“That’s great!”

Walker nods. “I also asked McKenzie about Liam’s passport. She couldn’t remember if it was in his personal effects the navy gave to her. She said she had been too emotional to look through it all and just put it in a box. We need to watch for that.”

“I can call Charlotte and ask her to go look. She has a key to our place.”

“I thought of that too. Figured we could call tomorrow. It’s three hours later there.”

I glance at my phone. It’s nine here, which means it’s midnight at home in Charleston. “She’s probably still up. I’ll try her now.” For some inexplicable reason, I need to hear Charlotte’s voice. I feel like my world has turned topsy-turvy since last night.

She answers on the second ring.
