Are you always so forthright over coffee dates?" "I don't know. You're the only one I ever had a crush on." Oh, boy. "And that was stupid." Flustered again, he raked his fingers through his hair. "Now I've scared you. That sounds scary and obsessive. Like I have an alter somewhere with your pictures over it, where I light candles and chant your name. Jesus! That's even scarier. Run now. I won't hold it against you." She burst out laughing. Had to set her coffee back down before she slouched it over the rim. "I'll stay if you swear you don't have the alter." "I don't." He swiped his finger in an X over his heart.
