Excerpt:
Daniel
by Marina Cross
They’d met for lunch for the third time in a week, walking among the newly blooming flowers along the Willamette River. Moist dew glinted, clinging to softly fragrant flower petals glittering diamond bright in the afternoon sun. Celia couldn’t help admiring how the sun fell like a radiant, sunburnt halo around David’s chestnut hair.
She could still hear his voice echo in her mind, “It’s really lovely here, isn’t it?”
She could still feel the tightening of her heart when he graced her with the brightest smile she’d ever seen.
His single-minded admiration surprised her.
“Why do you look at me like that?” she’d asked him nervously.
She’d been scared by the regard in his eyes. She’d never ever seen such a combination of admiration coupled with friendship from someone so different from her. It seemed where she lived her life closed, Daniel remained open to new experiences, making her long to see life from another point of view.
“Celia, don’t look so scared. I know we haven’t known each other long. Yet, I feel like I need to tell you this. I really care about you. Our friendship has been a breath of fresh air in my life.”
She’d wanted to believe in the promise of lasting friendship in his eyes. The most constant companion in her life had always been fear. Fear of change, fear of the past, the future, but most of all, herself.
She’d stilled like a nervous, wild horse when he moved a bit closer to her on the bench they’d been sitting on. Daniel took hold of her hand. She glanced down, unable to help smiling, looking at their fingers entwined. “What are you doing?”
“I’m going to kiss you, Celia.” Those words came soft and low before he tilted his face slightly, encasing his features with a halo as their lips met. No words could contain power enough to express just how right it felt. Powerful sexual hungry uncoiled in her belly, which only he’d been able to satisfy.
