She wanted to do something to help her daughter, but there was nothing she could do. It was up to Cameron to save her. She had faith in her son, but h...r inability to help was making her scared and furious.She decided that the only thing she could do was make sure Cameron and his girls were taken care of as best she could. She went by the grocery store to get some more food. If they all were going to be spending time at her house, they would need something to eat.She looked at her checkbook. At first, when he returned, he could only stand to be touched by her when he was numbed with liquor. Then the liquor wasn’t even enough so he drank more. And more. And more. He kissed her neck gently, once for each of the months he’d abandoned her at home and while went to the bar to drink to forget. He kissed her shoulder for all the times she’d had to come to pick him up from the bar when the bartender called her to say he was too drunk to drive home. He kissed along her collarbone for all. We had a wonderful trip. On the way home we stopped at different places to eat. One fish camp was so small there was no way to use their dock, so I beached the boat and tied up to a big tree, while we ate.Beth Ann loved to strike up conversations with people wherever we were. One of the folks we met tuned out to be the significant other of our landlady. He was big and loud. His idea of a conversation included saying something snarky and laughing like an idiot. I couldn't believe what a dweeb he. ’ ‘I don’t care.’ ‘But I do.’ our grind was still slow, and I was staring to be disappointed. I couldn’t go long without his touch..his love…I fell in love with him the way he was. He was more caring and devoted to me in the beginning but I knew he was just restless…but I wanted to mean to him now what I meant then. ‘I’m still your baby?’ I whispered. He pulls me closer and kisses me ‘Always.’ we kissed. ‘But for now, shh…And let me have you.’ we picked up our pace, and our breathing.
