A few minutes later, I guide Jenni’s car down a gravel driveway. A gentle breeze blowing from the west adds to the dust cloud the tires make, but not even a murky haze can’t reduce the blueness of the sky. A new day has dawned, and I plan to make the most of it.

After parking next to Noah’s truck, I swivel my torso to face him. “Where do you want to talk?”

When his lips curl into a panty-dropping grin, my eyes narrow. He won’t tell me where we’re going because he’d rather tease me. He gets an immense amount of pleasure from forcing me to be patient. Usually, it’s only in the bedroom. Thank god.

“Come on.”

With the core of a gentleman but the face of a sex god, he assists me out of Jenni’s car before aiding me into the passenger seat of his truck. Heat spreads across my chest when he fastens my seatbelt before jogging to his side of the truck and hopping into the driver’s seat. He’s wearing a smile I’ve only seen a handful of times before. He’s nervous, yet relaxed—if that makes any sense?

When Noah takes a left at the end of Jacob’s street, my eyes stray to his. “Alright. Fess up. Where are we going? There’s nothing but cow dung and pastures this way.”

He smiles but not a word seeps from his lips. It's only when he turns down familiar-looking streets do I realize where we’re going. He’s taking the back roads to Bronte’s Peak. Only locals know this way.

We haven’t been to Bronte’s Peak since last summer. Things with the band got so hectic, we didn’t have time to visit our favorite spot. Although it’s usually overrun with tourists every weekend, since it's winter, the crowds shouldn’t be as bad.

With us entering the parking lot from the opposite end, Noah finds an empty spot rather quickly. After turning off his ignition, he grabs a blanket from under the seat—the same blanket he wrapped me in on our first date—then comes around to help me down from his truck.

“Are you sure this is okay?” I whisper, worried people may recognize him. It may not be as packed as it usually is, but there are still a few hundred people taking in the spectacular manmade creation.

“I have my disguise.” Grinning, Noah flicks open a baseball cap he had stuffed in his back pocket before lowering it onto his head. It’s the Parkwood State cap I gifted him months ago when he visited my campus. I hate that it hides his eyes from my view, but by looking like a regular college student, he has a better chance of remaining incognito.

He just needs to simmer down his rock star swagger.

As we walk hand in hand to the wooden staircase that leads to the beach below, a few people look our way. I don't know whether they recognize Noah, or if they just appreciate how incredibly handsome he is. I’d say it’s a combination of them both.

After trekking across the white sandy beach, we merge into a cave at the very end.
