Chapter 36: On a Cloud

Micah held Rory for the entire subway ride, not wanting to let her go. The tighter he held her, the more he could feel her. Her emotions screamed at him, and they were the best thing he’d ever heard. Rory had feelings for him. He didn’t know if she’d had them for a while, or if she’d just discovered it, but the frequency beaming off her was undeniable.

When the subway stopped half an hour later, she twisted around to look at him. “This is our stop.”

He could read her feelings in her eyes, hesitation, fear, excitement, affection, nerves, and he understood because he felt it too. It became abundantly clear to him that not only was he tethered to her, but that he had been for some time. Possibly from the moment he’d first seen her.
