Slowly inhaling the rich summer air, he listened as Sam ushered Julia toward the dance area, reminding himself that he’d vowed to go the distance tonight. If he was going to get on with as normal a life as possible, he wanted to start living it like he had in the past. Living like he had a future. When he sensed Katie shifting beside him, he leaned toward her and asked, “Would you like something to drink? I’m pretty sure I caught a whiff of apple cider. If it’s anything like in past years, I’m sure it’s good.” “That sounds delicious. Thank you,” she answered, her sweet voice raised a notch, compensating for the loud music and the dancer’s stamping feet as the announcer called for the Virginia reel. “Do you mind leading the way?” He reached up and grasped her arm. “I’m a little uncertain with all the people. Can’t rely on shadows when it’s so dark in here.” She briefly touched his hand at her elbow. “Not at all. It’s just over here, to the left.” As she weaved through the crowd, Joseph returned several greetings sent his way, trying to appear as casual as possible.
