The new technology the lane and driveway were made of, were clear of any snow as it had been melting upon contact with the road, which always stayed a... a constant temperature, warm enough to melt snow in the winter, yet cool enough that you could be barefoot on the hottest summer day and not burn your feet.During this downtime, they had been contemplating about what to do with the ranch. One of the options was to revert the ranch back to the way it was, before all the alien upgrades and sell. “If I’d asked you to go on a picnic that day, would you have agreed?”“Of course not,” she admitted.“So ... what changed?”“I don’t know,” she said.“We talked a little bit,” he offered. “We got to know each other a little bit and I wasn’t so scary anymore.”Now she felt bad that she was lying to him again. He had jumped to the wrong conclusion ... that she liked being with him. She couldn’t admit that the only reason she was here, in this tree house, was because she was waiting for him to offer to. That was Lara's problem! She never considered the event immoral or sinful, but as something amazing and the most wonderful experience. She realized that what happened should never have happened, yet she dreamed about it every day.Lara would be dishonest if she said the weekend was the worst of her life. She vowed to use the upcoming Saturday, and Sunday if need be, to fully grasp and understand what took place. She was determined to go over the entire two-day affair and relive what the boys did. Still, I’m determined to have a good time as my girlfriend is away and I’ve finally got time to hang out with friends. No one to watch over me, I’m free to enjoy myself.We head over to the bar to get some drinks, only to find it’s four deep with students. I offer to go and find somewhere to sit while they wait. I head to the only remaining seat, a sofa in the corner. As I sit down my phone buzzes in my pocket, it’s my girlfriend phoning to check up on me, I decide that it’s too loud to.
