The sun was setting when they got back to the truck — shirts off, hands close, and something quiet growing between them.
They didn’t speak much on the drive.
They didn’t need to.
Not when Colt held his hand the whole way home.
In Chapter Eight:
• Shared glances and golden light
• Ruth’s not home — but she left supper waiting
• One invitation. One choice.
• Skin to skin, breathless and slow
• Not everything — but something real
They didn’t go all the way. Not yet.
But it was enough to shift everything.
❝
For once, neither of them felt ashamed.
