Summary
The last thing Ellie remembers is the echo of a breathless, "I'll see you in a couple of years." It was just an idea. It wasn't a promise. She never thought it would actually happen.

Bookmark Notes:
Aster bites her bottom lip once, then twice, and then shakes her head. It does nothing to ease the tension, and when their gazes finally lock into each other, there’s something in Aster’s eyes. It reminds her of how she imagines she looks, and she just has time to think that she wishes she’d done it first before Aster’s mouth is on hers.
Aster’s lips are just as soft as they were two years ago, only this time she tastes like vanilla ice cream from the cones they’d eaten earlier that day, bittersweet relief, and being found.
She tastes like gospel music in a hot spring, a full moon looking down on the winding roads of Washington, and the subtle art of something new. She tastes like heartbreak, frustration, and regret. She tastes like searching, yearning, longing, and discovering. She tastes like a slow build in a busy city. She tastes like Aster. She tastes like home.
