That’s just what you wanted when you set out on this journey with me, even if you didn’t let yourself know it until now. ‘You wanted to be fille... with my words, filled with my thoughts, filled with my ideas. You wanted to be blank and open to my influence, and now it’s happened and it feels so very good. Imagine me pouring pleasure into your blank and empty mind, and you can’t escape it because the pleasure is here at the heart of the spiral and the spiral always pulls you down, deeper and. But you can go crazy making love, too. It’s all in how you feel at the moment. It’s hard to explain.”“I guess. But when you decided I couldn’t be in your bed, THAT wasn’t treating me special!”“No, it wasn’t. It was mean and nasty, and a horrible thing for me to do to you. I hope you can forgive me.”“Yes. I’m still not happy because you were mean.”“I was. And it’s OK to be upset with me. I understand. That’s part of what loving is about. It’s also about forgiving when the other person says that. "Oh and Shira?" Yes Lindy?" I want you to watch what I do with Eva. You'll have a similar dynamic with your trio." You want me to learn her moves?" No. I'm going to be a little more collaborative with you. I love your instincts." Really?" she practically squeaked.Lindy chuckled. "Yes, really. I'm looking forward to it." Me too," Shira grinned beautifully."So," I asked her, "No problem going with us to Boston?" None," she grinned.We gazed at each other. I shared her excitement. I hadn't enjoyed. " Risks? Caleb, that is downright dangerous," JJ protested. "I like Scotty, but he could have all of us locked up." I know," Caleb said, the simple words feeling like a stone in his guts. "So the question is, what kind of risk is the human race worth?" Great!" JJ said, crossing her arms and settling in her seat angrily. "It's bad enough that he's got you into another job where people shoot at you. Do you know how frightened that makes me?"She took a breath, and didn't wait for an answer before.
