..” Frank sputtered, trying to think of some proper revenge on the girl. “I oughtta just leave you right here, alone!”And that struck real terro... into the girl’s trembling young heart! She was really frightened of being alone in the dark! She even slept with a bright nightlight! She didn’t want to stay alone in the dark, and especially not in this scary old barn!“NOOO!” she cried out, tears filling her lovely dark blue eyes.“Oh yeah?” Frank said, very interested in this sharp response to his. .And shivering as he realized he was kneeling on the cold floor of the shower with a handful of come. Awkwardly he stood up, and finished washing.Late again, he took the stairs again and this time actually caught a glimpse of his new neighbor on the way out. She was a short, cheerful-looking woman in a light green business-casual shirt and dark slacks, with square-framed glasses and reddish hair in a short bob. She caught him looking at her as she bent down to pick up yet more boxes, and smiled. I wanted to talk about what felt different with the the three of us—and he and I, too.‘Yes?’ He said softly, right in my ear, one hand slipping gently up to cup one of my breasts. Clearly, he had other things on his mind.That was easy, even though it was also a little bit confusing. I’d done things with both boys alone before, but now this felt different. Was it because Myles had kissed me, at the movies, and it hadn’t been a preamble to sex? The kiss just a minute ago had been the same. It was. I'm the only moving thing. The silence was deafening. Just as I thought that, a rain drop breaks the deadlock as it splatters upon the bridge of my nose. A gust of wind sends several birds off on a winged flight, leaving behind the echo of their beating wings. The cloak of darkness is soon to envelope me. I wonder if hiking off like this was such a great idea. Yes, I reply to myself. This is where I want to be. In a place so few know exists. So few who care to know. The time to seek.
