Chapter Twenty-One

Changed and waiting for Christian at the water’s edge, the promise of later weighed heavy on my mind. School was easy. I got an assignment or volunteer for a job and I did it. Done. This thing between Christian and me was easy. We got along great, but what was next? I had no real experience with boys. I’d kissed some guys before, but I didn’t really like them. And there never was electricity like there was every time Christian touched me. I wanted to kiss him. I really, really did, but I didn’t know how.

That was one for the record books—Miss Leadership girl didn’t know how to take initiative.

I guess I could wait and see what happened. Or I could kiss him first—but I never made the first move. All I did know was that he better kiss me or I would explode. Full-on everybody get out of the way explosion

“Did you miss me?” he called out to me as he wound his way down the path. My stomach did a back-flip followed by a cartwheel. I bravely swallowed my nerves before turning to him. He was completely overloaded with piles of blankets and baskets.

“Of course. Need some help?”

“Can you lay out the blanket?” He bent over so I could grab it from the top of the pile. “Mountain pies and s’mores for dinner.”

I smoothed out the corners of the blanket. “What are mountain pies?”

He let out a shocked gasp.

“And I’ve never had s’mores. Are they good?”

Again he shuddered. “You’ve never had a s’more before?”

I shook my head.

“Starr, there’s much I have to teach you.”

I wanted to say, “Christian, you have no idea,” but instead I said, “Where do we start?”

“First a fire and then magic!” It was the magic that tightened my stomach and the promise of later…

With the strike of a match on a small teepee of sticks and tinder, he got a fire roaring. He patted the blanket beside him. “Watch and learn.”

I took a deep breath and sat down. He picked up a long handle with a cast iron square at one end of it. When the cast iron square was hot, he instructed me in the fine art of mountain pie making.

After we devoured several pizza pies and blueberry pies, we moved on to s’mores. My first bite of the campfire dessert erupted from my mouth. Gooey marshmallow and melted chocolate dripped down the corners of my lips like delicious hot lava. Using my hoodie sleeve, I wiped the drippings from my face. “Oh my gosh, yummm!”

“No really, you should leave it. The look is quite attractive,” he teased, shifting closer. “I bet you taste delicious.”

“Bah hahaha!” I fell sideways in a fit of laughter.

“Just what do you think is so funny?”

“I’m sorry,” I managed to choke out, “but that line was one of the corniest come-on’s I’ve ever heard.”

He grinned at me. “You think that was a come-on? Oh Starr, you do have a lot to learn.”

That sobered me up. “You didn’t
