TYLER NEVER WORRIED about falling asleep. Usually, he'd fall into bed and be out the second his head hit the pillow.

Tonight he found it more difficult. Because of Libby Douglas. He hadn't planned on stopping off to pick up burgers and take them by her place. And he couldn't remember ever putting in a special order for someone he didn't even know. How could he have known she didn't like tomatoes on her burgers?

He knew it sounded corny, but he viewed her as someone special. She didn't have the flash Renee had. Maybe because she taught rug rats. Her reserve didn't seem to matter, since it suited her so well.

He crossed his hands behind his head and looked up at the ceiling, where he could see shadows chase themselves across the smooth surface.

Even though the air was chilly, he had the window open an inch or so. From outside, he could hear the muted sounds of the Gunderson’s' collie barking at the Harker’s' cat, who enjoyed teasing him by prowling the top of the fence. And it sounded like the Smiths next door were at it again. He swore they only fought so they'd have the pleasure of making up-and they weren't quiet about that, either. He didn't envy them the fighting, but he sure envied them the loving.

His parents were telling him it was time to get married and start a family. They liked to remind him that they'd had their family already started by the time they were Tyler's age. They wanted grandchildren to spoil!

He smiled in the dark. "I bet they'd like Libby."

He already knew what they thought of Renee.

While his mother never came right out and revealed her thoughts, the tone of her voice was enough.

"Are you still seeing the Carter girl?" she'd ask every time they talked on the phone.

"Renee and I go out every so often," he'd reply, cautious with his replies. His mother might live out of state, but she was very intuitive, not to mention her friends probably kept her up to date on her son’s antics. He swore she could read his thoughts even long distance.

"I'm sure there are many nice girls in town you can take out," she'd tell him in her motherknows-best voice.

"Don't worry about me, Mom," he'd reassure her. "You'll have plenty of grandchildren to spoil. I won't let you miss out on that."

Tyler yawned and smiled. "Yeah, she'd like Libby," he whispered before turning over and falling asleep.

Tyler's dreams were never very vivid, but tonight was different. Pictures of Libby floated through his mind.

Strangely enough, she looked to be about five years old, with a cherub's face and smile. She was dressed in a pink dress with ruffles and a little straw hat with a pink ribbon and bow around it. Her shoes were white patent leather and her socks were edged with lace.

Then it seemed five years or so had passed. Her denim shorts were ragged, her T-shirt the same. Her hair was pulled back in a ponytail, but curls escaped to rest against her tanned cheeks and neck.
