Chapter 12Ben I didn’t have the words for seeing River for the first time in several weeks. He looked so gorgeous in his simple attire and a bit of makeup to enhance his individuality. His hair looked great, too, in its almost natural color. Some part of me felt extremely satisfied by the fact that he found me so hot when he saw what I was wearing. I’d thought of it for a while, and then decided to go for it. What I hadn’t expected was the way I wanted to keep kissing him in the stable. I felt like trying to climb inside his skin to get as close to him as possible. In a totally not weird and not at all serial killer-y way though. The event was great. I had fun meeting people and didn’t feel stressed or overwhelmed even once. I think that had more to do with the way we were mostly outdoo
