and I said, 'That is why you don't climb mountains, Gwen.' But now I wonder. You aren't afraid of heights."

"No", she said. "Not particularly."

"Only missteps."

She paused midstroke. Did he mean to imply this had been a misstep? "I was afraid," she said carefully. "For a very long time. But no longer."

"So was I," he said, and lifted her chin and kissed her.
