Excerpt fromOnce
“What’s
the answer?”
He
paused. “A switchblade.”
With
my fingertips, I reached out and traced the scar across his cheek. “Did you
win?”
He
removed my hand and closed his eyes. “Yes.”
I
slid his Book back to him. “This says we can find forgiveness.”
His
eyes still closed, his jaw clenched. He bowed his head. “It also says ‘Thou
shalt not kill.’”
I
took his hand in both of mine, petted his rough skin, and then brought it to my
lips. He had a talent for guiding invisibly, but I didn’t know how to do that.
He
watched me again. His eyes were intense, like the black of the night sky, and
his forehead was furrowed, as if his emotions were scattered, as if he was
shocked at my reaction, as if he had been sure his answer would drive me away.
But I knew him. Already, I knew him.
“You’re
still a good person,” I said.
His
jaw clenched. “I’ve been trying to believe that.”
“I
have faith in you.”
He
continued to watch me. His forehead never smoothed, as if he was fighting for
strength, but his eyes softened. He slid around the booth, closer to me.
I
didn’t move, not sure what to do, what was right, what he wanted.
He
leaned closer.
I
only watched him.
He
touched his lips to my cheek, the faintest pressure. I struggled to sit still,
to keep my hands in my lap, not to grab hold of him. And then his lips were
gone, such brief contact that I couldn’t be sure if he had actually kissed my
cheek or if I wanted his contact so much that I’d imagined it.
He
spoke in my ear. “You must be some kind of final test.”
My
heart pounded into my ribs, against the point of the blade. “Are you going to
pass?”
His
lips brushed against my jaw. “I don’t know.”
He
trailed to my neck, his mouth softly pressing. My hand curled into his hair,
the other on his shoulder, holding, clutching. His mouth found mine, barely
touching. His warmth invaded my head.
“God
give me strength,” he murmured.
The
door slid open, and the compartment filled with laughter.
He
closed his eyes. Then he slid away from me.
The cover of Once is haunting to me, and I'm drawn to their intense connection and the reality that separated them. Looks like a really good book!
