by M. Ullrich


  “I’m dying to know how it happened.”

  “This is Clarissa we’re talking about. I’m sure we’ll all get to read about it in the next issue of Out Shore.” She bit lightly at Genevieve’s earlobe. “Until then, let’s celebrate us.” Harper started to sway them in time to the music that floated throughout the sea air.

  Genevieve turned in Harper’s arms and framed her face with her hands. “I plan on spending the rest of my life celebrating us.” She leaned up and kissed Harper. Genevieve teetered on her high sandals and one of her ankles gave out. Harper caught her before she fell.

  “Thanks for catching me.”

  “I always will, and I’ll make sure to always have ice packs in the freezer.”

  Harper’s smile was brilliant and Genevieve’s laugh, unrestrained. They danced and celebrated along with friends, coworkers, and loved ones in the setting summer sun. Genevieve had never known contentment like this. She had never expected to love, or be loved, in such an overwhelming way. Life truly had a funny way of unfolding for a dreamer like Genevieve Applegate. And if Genevieve was certain of anything in that moment, it was that vowing to love Harper until her dying day would be the easiest step to take along the way.
