I had made sure to park in a spot where I could quickly leave the parking lot and we were out by 10:10pm.“Where are we going, Steve? Your car isn’... really good for making out, let alone anything else.”“I have keys to an apartment that belongs to my boss. Nobody will be there today or tomorrow. We can be all alone and there’s a really nice bed.”“Oh,” she said quietly.It took less than ten minutes to get to the apartment and park. I got out and opened Tracey’s door for her and we walked inside,. He sat down on one of the benches and closed his eyes. Seemingly unbidden, memories of a vivid dream that he’d had the previous night arose. He smiled faintly as the tantalizing images took over. He was in a bedroom, naked, sitting on the bed. He poured himself a glass of wine from a bottle on the bedside table. He was waiting for someone, but he did not know who. As he was taking his first sip of the wine, the door to the bedroom opened and a woman entered, also naked. She seemed to be about. I left the past alone and concentrated on my future. I’ve had a chance of meeting some pretty cool girls but none were or could ever measure up to Page, this made me handicapped. I could no longer hold a relationship with any girl, god knows how I’ve tried but the feelings I’ve had and ability to love was gone. My heart was lead. I started joining in on the meetings Draven held at the basement of some coffee shop. ‘The Circle of Friends’ was quite some set up. It reminded me of an AA meeting. I shouted at my wife “Sharon, go upstairs to bed, I will deal with you tomorrow. Alice! Come with me”. My wife made her way slowly upstairs as I grabbed Alice’s arm and marched her into the living room, pushing her unceremoniously into the easy chair.“Not only are you late Alice, you are drunk!” I said loudly. Alice mumbled something incoherent as her chin now rested on her chest. I said “You know what happens here if you break my rules don’t you”. Silence..... Alice was fast nodding off to.
