Miranda played mystery on a
double word score with a blank tile. “Bingo,” she chorused. “Fifty points.” She
hopped up to do a victory dance. As she did, her foot clipped the table, and
the tile bag toppled over.
They both bent to pick them up.
He smelled like Old Spice, the way her father did before the chemo made her
mom’s nose too sensitive. “You,” Miranda started to say, to ask or to explain
why she couldn’t stop staring at him.
“You,” he said in reply.
Then he leaned in closer and
pressed his lips against hers. His eyelashes stirred against her cheeks as he
closed his eyes. She leaned in closer. And neither one moved to stop. For a
very long moment, lips slightly parted, they breathed in the same air, as they
hovered in the sweet spot right after a kiss.
Then his phone went off,
startling them both.
He snapped backwards and patted
down his pockets for the source of the interruption. He stared at the number.
“I think I have to take this,” he said. “Some kind of hospital.”
