I quickly pull an overall-miniskirt over my bathing suit. I feel his eyes on me as I pack up the aerobics supplies, and I search for anything to break the tension.

“I can’t believe I forgot the music today, but what’s the saying? Imperfect action is better than perfect inaction?” My nose wrinkles and I exhale a laugh. “That can’t be right.”

“That sounds like settling.”

“It’s the opposite of settling. If you try to make everything perfect, you miss the good right in front of you.”

My lips part, and I look up at him. “I like that a lot.”

His jaw tightens, and he shifts his stance. “It’s time to go.”

“I’ll find Edward, and we’ll meet you at the Jeep.”

A quiet smile is on my lips, and a flicker of hope sparks in my chest. He picks up his bag and walks away without another word.
