EXCERPT
“CJ,
what are you doing out here?” The biting wind blew her hair all around her
face.
When
he heard the surprise in her voice, the warmth of embarrassment warmed his
cheeks. “Can’t a man take a walk to clear his head?”
A
wide smile crossed her face. “Possibly, but I find it a great coincidence that
both you and I got that same idea only an hour apart, especially when you had a
mammoth amount of paperwork to keep you busy all night. Fess up, CJ, what are
you doing out here?”
She
was enjoying this, playing with him. Ryanne wanted to hear it from his own
mouth he was out on a frigid Saturday night looking for her. Well, maybe he
would play with her for a while.
“I
don’t know Ryanne,” he said looking up into the clear night sky. “You and I are
a lot alike. Both of us are restless, both of us didn’t have the greatest
childhoods that spilled over into our adult lives. Maybe…” he said dropping his
eyes from the sky and settling on her, “we think alike, too.”
“Okay,
I believe you,” she agreed. But it was clear in her amused expression that she
knew he came out to look for her because he was concerned. “I guess I’ll see
you back at the house then,” she dismissed him and began to walk into the
cemetery.
Jaw
dropping, he could believe this woman. She was walking alone, right into the
middle of a dark cold cemetery. Who knew what lurked there? Teenage kids
drinking and drugging? Homeless people who might be violent? And least he
forget whatever the hell was in his bedroom that came to visit him the night he
was down with the flu.
“Wait,
Ryanne!” He called to her.
Turning
back, she stopped and looked at him. “What is it?”
“Okay,
it was fun for a moment, but now it’s just plain dangerous.”
Her
brow creased with puzzlement. “What are talking about? Do you mean the
cemetery?”
“Yes,
I mean the cemetery. You don’t know what…or who is lurking in there. It’s
Saturday night for God’s sake. Kids are probably partying in there. Not to
mention it’s freezing.”
“Oh
CJ, it’s so sweet that you care. But I’m perfectly fine. I’ve spent so much
time in the cemetery growing up, both day and night, for more hours than I’m
willing to count.”
“You
know, I should just leave you out here! You’re so stubborn, not to mention
delusional! But I’m not going to have you getting hurt or murdered on my
conscience.” He never, never in his life cared enough about anyone to embarrass
himself like he was right now. He didn’t want to care, didn’t want to fall in
love and chance getting crushed when it all fell apart. Now it was all
happening, and he was powerless to stop any of it.
Holding
out her hand to him, she said, “Well, come on, I’ll show you.”
He
stared mutely at her outstretched hand.
“Unless
you’re afraid,” she added.
“I’m
not afraid of anything…or anyone,” he retorted, taking her offered hand. The
truth was, he was afraid of Ryanne, or more pointedly, he was afraid of what
she would do to him if he got too close to her.
