Can we chase it and never come down ?

But it doesn’t matter what I’m sayin ’

I’m goin’ to love you while the sun is hot and the waves are warm

So dance with me, baby, like tomorrow is September

We’ll always have the summer to remember

Baby, they say summer love comes and goes

Comes and goes

Like birds flying south

Tourists leaving town

Before you go, give me one more night on the beach

So I can hold you in my arms and kiss you deep

They say summer love comes and goes

Comes and goes

Like birds fling south

Tourists leaving town

T he meaning of the words started to sink into my head as he looked directly into my eyes. For a moment, it felt like he could see deep into my soul, but surely that couldn’t be? Did he mention their swing in the song, and their nights on the beach? It felt personal and intimate. Almost as intimate as giving her body to him .

No guy had ever sung me a song, much less written one that hit me from all sides .

“He’s really good.” Emily interrupted my thoughts. “Can you believe he wrote it ?”

I shook my head. “He mentioned he played open mic nights. But this? I had no idea .”

Twenty-Five

Blake

O ne full set and an encore later, I retired to the bar to enjoy a well-deserved beer. Or five .

“You were great tonight, man.” Cole slapped me on the back. “The girls were loving it .”

“Thanks.” I settled onto a bar stool and swigged the cool liquid .

“I think I have your two newest fans here. They might want autographs .”

“Seriously, Cole? Enough with the fan boy stuff.” I saw Sierra and Emily from high school approach from behind my tall cousin .

“You were amazing, Blake,” Emily exclaimed. She leaned in for a hug. I hadn’t seen her in a long time. I remembered she knew Sierra’s secret and had kept it. I didn’t know whether that made her a loyal friend or someone I should be wary of .

“Thanks. Good to see you .”

For some unexplainable reason, Sierra seemed a tad tongue-tied and nodded her head in my direction .

“Come here, darlin’.” I pulled her between my legs. “You look like you could use a drink .”
