"He hadn’t been her first lover or the first boy to give her an orgasm. He hadn’t even been the first she’d loved. He’d been the first to turn her inside out with something as simple as a smile.

"“I wanted to get in the car and drive, just drive. Just get to you. That’s all I could think of, was
getting to you. But I knew I had to sober up first. So I went out, to the beach. I thought if I

splashed some on my face…well, if I took a swim. That would help. I thought I’d only jump in, get wet. I thought it would only take a few minutes and I could be on my way. To you.”
His voice snagged like a burr on silk. Heat leaked from the corners of Bess’s eyes and slipped between her lips. Salt water. Always salt water.
“I was stupid,” Nick whispered.
“You didn’t know,” she whispered back.
“It took my feet out from under me. And all I could think of was how you were waiting, and I was going to fuck it all up again. How I was going to let you down.”"
