Chapter 11
Zoey could barely hide her excitement as they walked up to the summit. This was higher than sheâd been in the mountains before. Sheâd gone up a little way to check out the view just to orient herself, but this was different. This time, she was heading for the clouds for the sheer fun of it.
âYouâre about to get a look at my favorite place in the Rocky Mountains,â said Wilder. âAre you ready for this?â
âIâm ready, Daddy!â Zoey replied giddily. As they crested the summit, the view that spread out before her took her breath away. Blue sky, imposing rocks, gnarled pines, bright wildflowers, and the most stunning lake Zoey had ever seen.
âItâs called Dream Lake,â said Wilder. âIâm not sure how it got its name, but itâs definitely kinda magical.â
âIt is,â Zoey agreed. âItâs perfect.â The water in the lake looked so blue, so inviting. And the reflection of the trees and mountains in the surface was out-of-this-world.
âA view like that makes you stop and think, huh?â said Wilder.
âIt sure does.â
âLike having the world at your feet.â
They began to walk down the craggy stone steps in the side of the mountain as they approached the lake.
âYou know,â said Wilder, âpart of the reason that I think this place is perfectly named is that I always think about what I want from life when I come here. The peace, the beauty. It reminds you of the things that are important to you.â
âI think I know what you mean,â Zoey said softly.
Wilder paused. âWhatever it is you want to do, sweetheart, you go do it. Youâre young, youâre smart as heck. You deserve whatever it is youâre looking for.â
Zoey sighed. She still hadnât told Wilder everything about her past. Exactly why she had run away. Why she could never have everything she dreamed of. She would tell him everything, and she would do it soon.
âWilder,â she said, slipping her hand into his as they approached the water. âAll I know is that right now, I want this.â
Wilder squeezed her hand. âMe too.â
They slipped into a happy silence with one another as they walked to the edge of the lake. They had an understanding now. There was nothing else to say at this moment.
âLook at that,â said Wilder, and peered down into the blue. âLooks like my dream came true.â
Zoey peered down into the water and saw what Wilder was talking about. Reflected perfectly in the waterâs surface she saw a young woman, her expression free from worry, and an older, kind-faced man, holding hands with her as their hearts beat in unison.
âItâs us,â she marveled.
Wilder tugged on Zoeyâs hand, pulling her closer to him, then turning her around so that she was facing him. She threw down her crutch and surrendered to his strength, letting herself fall against his chest as he held her. Then, she felt his fingers nudging her chin, tilting it up toward his own.
Her tummy backflipped as she realized what was happening: a kiss! All the things theyâd done together so far, and still he had yet to kiss her.
