I found out she was heading to Portland so I started looking for loads going that way. The conversation kept moving towards sex, to my delight as it h...d been a few days. I finally ask if she wanted to climb in the sleeper. Portland said she would like that very much. My mind went into overdrive thinking, Am I clean enough, will I come too soon, do I have condoms on-board, etc. Too late she was already heading towards the back. I told Portland I have a rule she had to follow. She stopped short. ‘But dad…’ ‘Now that’s enough!’ His dad cut him off. ‘Jack I’ve informed your after school tutors that they’re still to tutor you during the holiday, so it should keep you busy. Kate, I’ve deposited an extra few thousand in your account on top of your usual allowance, so you can pay Jack his allowance and give Melissa (the cook) her shopping budget. I want you to take good care of Jack and use this as an opportunity to get to know him while I’m gone.’ We’d all finished dinner so Kate stood up. I think about what kind of man I must be as I clean mylipstick off the rim of the glass. I check myself in the mirror and reapply mylipstick. I look at the clock and notice I still have 7 minutes to get intoposition but I go anyways. I mince down to corner in the foray and I stand. I place myhands behind my back and I stare into the corner. I can?t believe I am doingthis. I hate doing this. I can?t believe my feet are already sore and it?s noteven 5 o?clock yet, or is it? I think about the web. I could only stammer that he looked magnificent, but that his eyes were so sad and his voice so warm, I could not possibly be afraid. It was then that I thought I saw a tear drop from his eye. His only response.In a mixture of awe and compassion I stepped closer to him, he lifted his head slightly to my eye level. I reached out and place a hand gently on each of his cheeks. So soft they were. I ran my left hand tenderly down his neck and again was surprised at how silk soft he was, even while.
