After that it would pretty well be time to go home.The thought of going home had an unexpected effect on Tom. He found himself feeling quite disappoin...ed at the prospect of leaving this wonderful place. This feeling was completely at odds to what he had been feeling just yesterday when his mother had first dared to tell him of their plans. At that point he had been just so dead against the whole idea but within the space of less than twenty four hours Tom knew he had done a full 180 degree. " I can't say I was disappointed. I love my dad.She smiled then. "Your father is a charlatan."I ignored her. "Why are you here?" Because Lisa said you would amuse me." Why do I not believe you are the rich trash bitch you've been playing at?" You haven't amused me yet." She snorted a laugh. "That was funny, though." She started the car and drove me to her house on top of a hill in the city. We spent most of our time together discussing appropriate lubrication.Before dinner, she dropped me home,. If I could walk away ... I could go anywhere. Do anything. I could put my failure behind me and move on. Maybe. If I could stop crying. All I had to do was pick up the phone.So I did."Where you going?" Dana was sitting in the kitchen the next morning, nursing Steven at her breast."Oh." I blinked at her and it was very early, the sky still dark but turning grey. I'd wanted to slip out, like a ghost."Utah," I nodded. "I'm gonna go see Josh. Surprise him." That'll be good," she smiled and Dana. He stared into the faces of the people walking past as his tongue licked the insole lining. His head was tilted to one side as if attempting to get his tongue right to the end of the toe box.He broke the kiss, staring reverently at the shoe before slowly dropping to his knees. He glanced around. Then, holding the shoe up as if making an offering to the castle, he held it out in front of him and slowly placed it on the pavement.He knelt in front of the shoe. His hands sliding down his shirt.
