so loud I could almost work out the words.
“Dalton, dude. She’s gone. I’m not sure I could get her back even if I could find her.” He turned and looked me right in the eye. “Right. Well, there’s a hotel within walking distance, if she’s there I’ll tell her all that and see what’s what…Right. See you tomorrow.”
He turned the phone off then silenced it.
“So, here’s the deal.” Kyle squatted in front of me and stared straight on. “Are we dating or what?”
“ What?”
“Are we dating? Are you and I official? Is this enough of the crap we had to cut through to get to a good thing?”
“Seriously? My livelihood is on the line and that’s what you want to know?”
“I want to know that whatever you do for a job doesn’t matter to our relationship. I want to know if I quit the tour or you quit the tour or I became a chocolatier in France or you became a school teacher in Des Moines, that we’d still be an us.”
“Why do you get to live in Paris and I’m in Des Moines?”
“Because this is my what-if. You can do the next one.”
“What if I said yes and it doesn’t work?”
“What if you said yes and it does?”
I pictured a life of music and joy and laughter, all with Kyle, and I knew the answer. “Yes,” came out as a low whisper, as afraid to leave my body as I was to let it out.
“Yes?” He reached out, taking my hand.
“Aw, what the hell. I was looking for an adventure anyway.”
And that’s how I got one. And a huge raise and a private bunk on bus two.
Life was pretty darn good.
