That doesn’t sound so dangerous. I keep my eyes on him as I riffle through my bag for my bottle. It’s only about half full, but hopefully it’ll still work.
The flashlight is pretty bright on its own, but the second I put it under my water bottle something incredible happens. I might as well have flipped on a light switch for how bright it is. But that’s not the cool part. Because my water bottle is blue, it looks like we’re totally submerged in the clearest lake. With the sound of the rain outside I might as well be. It’s calming.
“This is amazing,” I say, turning my attention from the walls to my tower-buddy.
For the first time I can see him clearly. He’s not murderer material at all. In fact, he’s more like puppy material. He has adorable smiling eyes and full lips that turn up in the corners. His thick hair is all messed up from the rain, but the cut is really nice so it looks more casual-cool than bed head.
My face heats up for no reason whatsoever. I guess if lightning can make a person look ominous, streaks of water-light can make a person look beautiful.
It isn’t until he moves his gaze from my eyes to the floor that I realize I’m staring. Super bad idea. I’m not sure where all my common sense went. He’s still a complete stranger.
If anyone could win an award for being weird around strangers, it would be me.
Acknowledgements
No man is an island, and no book comes together with one person alone. Many, many people have contributed to this novella being published.
First, a thank you to my husband. He didn’t complain about things unfinished while I was writing, didn’t stress when I told him I needed some of our time to work on this book, and he even took me to H-Mart on his birthday to give me extra energy, although he claims to like it too *wink.*
Next I have to thank the amazing Rebecca Scott for being my editor and pushing me farther than I thought I could go. She also put up with all my nagging and really helped me out in a pinch. You rock my socks off!
I have to mention Liz Isaacson for being my mentor in all things ebook and plotting. This woman is my superstar and I want to grow up to be like her.
To Erica Laurie for being a HUMONGUS emotional support through all of this, and for being brave enough to publish your own K-drama books. I’m so glad we found each other.
All of the ladies that I blog with on Dramas With a Side of Kimchi, you are the best fangirls I’ve ever known. Thank you for everything you do to support me, and for shouting your K-love to world! Someday we’ll figure out how to buy our own neighborhood and be the 1988 Ahjummas, but until then, we’ll keep doing that from a distance. Love you all!
KDA ladies, what can I say? You’re my best friends. Chatting with you every day is something that keeps me going. Thank you all for being around!
I would be nothing without my Beta Book Peeps. Jenny Morris, Cassie Mae, Rachel Schieffelbein, Kelley Gerschke, Suzi Retzlaff, Lizzy Charles, Tessa Marie, and Jessica Salyer thank you for being my constant support in the writing world!
Most of all, I have to thank my Father in Heaven. Without God, I wouldn’t be the person I am today. Truly, it’s through his light that I am here.
Dear reader, if you’ve made it this far, thank you for picking up this book. Thank you for reading my words. Thank you for believing in fiction.
