Jessica POV

After about another hour, Ethan and I headed out to his truck. He rested a hand on the small of my back, making me shiver. Ethan slid his leather jacket off his broad shoulders and put it around mine, although I wasn't shivering from the cold.

"Um." I tugged on the hem of my skirt. "Thanks for the ride."

Ethan smiled, making his blue eyes sparkle. This close, I could see that they had little spots of gold in them. "No problem."

"It's nice, I guess."

"Why did you move?"

"Um. Ah...no reason." He quirked a single eyebrow at me but made no comment. I raised my hand and pointed out the windshield. "Um. Just turn right up here."

But Ethan turned left.
