Micah gripped Kristin’s hand tightly and dragged her along the path to the barn. He hadn’t snuck out of his parents’ house like this since high school, but what he wanted to show Kristin was not something he wanted the rest of his family knowing. “What are we doing?” “No questions.” He took her around the back entrance and led her inside the darkened interior. In college, he and his brother had spent many nights refurbishing the barn for their own pleasure and that time paid off. He felt along the walls, counting his steps just like he did when he was younger. “My brother and I built our own little play room in college when my parents forced us to fix the barn. As far as I know, we’re the only two who know about it.” His finger caught in the groove of the wall and he stopped. He let go of her hand and pried the secret door open. Micah grinned when he got it open and reached in to flip on the light. It was his own personal dungeon. “Oh my…” Kristin stopped and glanced around.
