Chapter One

Time seemed to fly by. It had been almost three years since Steven went to college. I never heard a word from him, but at that time, I had become a success with my produce stand. Delilah and I had started spending more time together. We never went to her home; she said her Father was obnoxious and would make me feel bad. I did finally break down and tell her my sad tale of losing my parents and growing up in the cabin in the woods.

She started visiting me at the cabin. I taught her all the different plants, showed her my gardens, and even taught her how to make the preserves that I sell. Delilah was utterly fascinated with everything. She had grown up pampered, never allowed to get dirty or do things other than her school work and lessons. She excelled at everything and even graduated from college early.

One afternoon she brought some books with her. I had learned to read a little bit before my parents died, but that had been a long time ago. Delilah decided that I was going to be her pupil. That made us both laugh, me at the thoughts of school and her at my face.

The more time we spent together with each other, the closer we got. I didn’t have the words for how I felt. I just know that I couldn’t imagine Delilah never being in my life. It felt as if someone stole the air from my lungs if I even thought about it for too long.

We had been studying for a few months and I was now reading college books. It didn’t take long for everything that I had learned to come back to me. The only issue I had was not knowing some of the words or what they meant. On her next visit, Delilah brought me a dictionary so that I could look up the words that I was unsure of. I went to give her a hug and a simple kiss on the cheek. She turned her head and our lips touched. This kiss was like nothing I had felt when Steven kissed me. Everything in me lit up like fireworks. Not understanding what was going on, I broke the kiss and backed up apologizing to Delilah.

“Felecia, please don’t apologize. I wanted to kiss you. If I’m honest about it, I’ve wanted to for a long time. I know we aren’t supposed to be attracted to each other, but I am attracted to you like no other.”

“Delilah, that kiss made me feel funny. I’ve only ever been kissed once before. I felt nothing from that kiss and yes it was a boy. It was on my sixteenth birthday. It felt more like kissing my brother. With you, it’s like fireworks exploding inside of me. I feel all warm and fuzzy right now.”

“It felt different because you’re like me. You have stronger feelings for girls than you do boys. I guess I should say women and men instead now.
