His mother calls to him from downstairs. She says she wants to speak to him before leaving for her sister's. "I'm off now, Luca. I'll be back at about...eleven," she says. "Now you be careful with that girl —" — Kate. Her name is Kate, Mum." Kate. Of course. She's a lovely looking girl, and these young girls can be very..." Her words trail away, voice baulks at saying the word she first intended. Instead, she slips in a replacement, "... Young girls can be so very, very ripe."Jeez, Mum. Ripe!"And. As I was walking out she came out of the walk in closet and saw the box, and knew that I had put it their. Instead of being embarrassed she gave me a smile and said "Thanks!" and took it into the closet. I asked her out the following week, we went to see a movie and then I asked if she wanted a drink. She told me that she had a bunch of "thank you beer" left over from the move and that we should just go to her house. Sounded like a plan to me. We chatted for a bit, drank a couple of beers and. You'll all find out Christmas morning." Oh come on Matt... spill a little. You can tell me what you got Margo and Melissa can't you?'"Nope... I know all about you guys. You three have that telepathetic thing, and I know that if I tell you Megan, they'll read your mind and know what I got them too. Nope... not telling." Telepathetic? Don't you mean telepathic?" Nope, it's telepathetic with you guys. If I tele-you, you'll tele-them and then I'll be the pathetic gift giver... again. Not happening. I told her that there was another shelter for the shower that would give her more privacy and she smiled and told me with a big grin on her face that the one that was up did just fine. I think that I need to explain how the camp ground was set up so that you can understand that we should have been in a secluded spot. There was a small lane up the middle of the camp ground and on the way in camps 1,2,4, and 5 were along this lane. After you passed these camps it opened into a large parking lot.
