Excerpt
My eyes swept to the right, stopping as a pair of
boots came into view, and my lungs ceased up as yet another word raced through
my mind. It came screaming through my consciousness, freezing me in place for a
few very long seconds.
Harrison…
Before I could decide if I truly wanted to look at
him, my eyes made the decision for me. Slowly, I took in the sight of him as my
gaze ran the entire length of his body. He stood on the opposite side of the
hallway, leaning leisurely against the lockers, his jeans resting snugly around
his well-built thighs, his boots crossed at the ankles, his blue eyes locked on
me. He didn't move, evaluating me with curious, sincere interest, as was always
the case when we crossed paths.
He had been in the sun and was tanner now, which
deeply contrasted with the white t-shirt draped over the contours of his chest
muscles. His shaggy, dark blonde hair was tousled, which made him hardy and
more striking. As always, he looked like he'd just walked off the field and
into the city.
We'd been exchanging glances for over a year after
he transferred from a high school in Texas, both of us keeping our distance
while always seeming to sense when the other was around. Since the first time our eyes met, I'd snuck
glances of him and caught him staring back in the cafeteria, the library, in
the hallways. It was divine fate that we didn't share any classes or I wouldn't
have heard a single word the teacher said…and I have fairly strong willpower
when it comes to that kind of thing.
My focus right now, however, was on the steel stars
he held inconspicuously in his hands, as if he knew I didn't want anyone to see
them. But he had, and it instantly
put me on edge.
His inquisitive expression firmly in place, staring
intently, he crossed the hall. When he stopped a foot from me I realized that
with the exception of our first encounter, the two of us had never been so
close. Since that first meeting, we'd
kept a wary, intrigued space between us, which he had now breached.
