(Continued from yesterday. Click here to go back to the beginning.)
Jace tensed and his heart beat faster.
Jennifer swallowed. “This is really good.”
“Thanks.”
The page after that was a collage of Jennifer. She was cute, sophisticated, sexy, humble, studious, and numerous other qualities for which there are no words.
Jace panicked. “Sorry.” He fumbled with words. “I didn’t, uh, mean to, um, stalk you– or anything.”
Jennifer didn’t look angry or scared as she looked him in the eye. She took a breath. “Will you kiss me?”
Jace froze, like a deer mesmerized by a pair of headlights.
As if in a dream he touched his lips to hers, soft and full. She smelled good. He put his arm around her, and his hand passed over the strap of her bra. Her body was warm and there. She put her hand on his leg.
A moment later, he counted her eyelashes. He touched his thumb to her eyebrow and traced it around, and Jennifer snuggled her cheek into Jace’s palm. Her skin was soft. It was smooth. And she looked happy.
“I like you, Jace,” she managed. Then, with a lost smile, “I wish I wasn’t moving.”
“You’re moving?”
“Yes, to Seattle.”
“That’s pretty far,” he said.
“Yes, it is.”
“It sure is.”
“Can you sit with me for a little while?”
The next day, Jace had to walk on the grass as he passed by the house, because the green and white moving van was taking up the whole sidewalk. He hoped to catch a glimpse of Jennifer, but she was nowhere to be seen.
Now when Jace walks by the house, he sometimes sees two young children playing in the yard. Jace has Jennifer’s new address, and they’ve exchanged one or two letters. But he doesn’t know whether he’ll ever see her again. He figures, even if you’re an artist, sometimes you draw dead. Still he imagines he sees Jennifer sitting under the pines, reading or humming softly a tune Jace doesn’t know.
(The end.)

I was curious if you ever thought of changing the page layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?
When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get three e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service? Many thanks!

Hurrah, that’s what I was looking for, what a stuff! present here at
this blog, thanks admin of this web site.
I am regular reader, how are you everybody?
This paragraph posted at this website is really pleasant.
certainly like your web-site but you need to check the spelling on several of
your posts. Several of them are rife with spelling problems and I
find it very bothersome to inform the reality on the other hand I’ll
definitely come again again.
I love your blog.. very nice colors & theme. Did you create this website yourself or
did you hire someone to do it for you? Plz respond as I’m
looking to design my own blog and would like to find
out where u got this from. appreciate it
Hello! Someone in my Facebook group shared this website with us so I came to take a look. I’m definitely enjoying the information. I’m bookmarking and will be tweeting this to my followers! Wonderful blog and terrific style and design.
I do agree with all of the ideas you have introduced for your post.
They’re very convincing and can definitely work.
Still, the posts are very short for newbies. May
you please extend them a little from next time?
Thanks for the post.
Can I just say what a comfort to uncover someone who actually understands what they
are talking about on the web. You actually know how to bring an issue to light and make it important.
More people must look at this and understand this side of
the story. I was surprised that you aren’t more popular since you most certainly have the gift.
Why viewers still use to read news papers when in this technological
world all is accessible on net?
Whats up are using WordPress for your site platform? I’m new to
the blog world but I’m trying to get started and set up my own. Do you
need any html coding knowledge to make your own blog?
Any help would be really appreciated!
Great platform with helpful information.
