Chapter 94

Sitting beside him on the gazebo’s steps, he told me, “Big Foot was spotted here three years ago. Four college students were passing through the courtyard and saw him next to the wishing well. They said that the furry beast was getting water. They scared him away.”

I laughed at his story. “Those college kids were probably drunk and high.”

“Probably. But Big Foot washere. I’ll swear on ten Bibles if you want me to.”

I shook my head, laughed more, and admitted, “You’re crazy, do you know that? Everything about you is a roar. It’s never a dull moment.”

He ignored me and added, “Or maybe it was a chipmunk on steroids. What do you think? I’m sure it was a beefster chipmunk.”

He made me laugh again, leaned into me, and stole a kiss, using his tongue. When the intoxicating and melting kiss ended, he said, “I want to take you back to my garage, Micah. Is that too forward?”

I laughed, flattered by his comment and question, and replied, “You’re just using me for sex.”
