Berk pulls me to him and holds me. He doesn’t say anything. Though Kristie is not his mother, I know he is grieving for her, missing her. He spent more time with her than I did, in New Hope, while I was away in Athens. And he has also spent more time with Loudin—my father—than I have. He knows just how intelligent Loudin is, how calculating, how driven.

I tighten my grip around Berk’s waist and try, for a moment, to forget everything else that is happening. My muscles relax, though my heart quickens—not out of fear, but because I am near Berk. Every nerve seems to tingle, my whole body feels warmer, more alive when I am with him.

I love Berk. I love him with everything in me, and I want nothing more than to be with him forever, to have his arms around me every day of my life. I want what John had with Amy, the committed love he spoke of, the wedding and the life. Children. I want everything I was always taught was “primitive.” I lift my head from his chest and look into Berk’s eyes, eyes that have seen me since birth, that have watched me play and hide my differences, eyes that have always loved me for who I am.

Yes, Berk loves me. I see it. I feel it. He lowers his head, and I feel as if I am about to float away, that I am somewhere above, watching what is happening. His face is inches from mine, and I close the gap, my lips touching his in what is the most glorious feeling I have ever experienced. My arms are around his neck, and I rise on my toes so I can deepen this kiss, say without words what is in my heart, what has always been in my heart.

I discover that music can be made with no instruments at all.
