“Aurora.” I come to a reluctant stop and tilt my head to the sky. “I don’t care what Alberto says. Wear your hair curly.”

“You hoping to fall, or fly?” I pull away from him and gaze over the edge. His grip tightens on my waist, as if he’s worried a strong gust of wind will blow me over it. “Fly,” I announce. I turn back to him, loving how his eyes twinkle under the moonlight. “Yeah?” “Uh-huh.
