Forever Innocent
“I crossed my arm over my eyes, trying to block the unrelenting sun. Corabelle’s hair was draped all over my shoulder and chest. I was pretty sure it was the best feeling in the world. Okay, second best.
Her eyes were closed, her lips slightly parted. She breathed deep and even, like a kid. I wouldn’t take this night for granted or assume it meant we were back together. I knew her moods could shift, and besides, I’d been a chickenshit. I could blow these good feelings sky high.
The clock... behind her had giant red letters alerting me that I had 45 minutes to get out of bed and be at work. I didn’t have a shirt. When Corabelle’s text came through, I jumped on my bike without so much as a wallet.
