Does it turn me on? Do I like it? Yes! Can I make that decision for another person? No!”Satisfied, I nodded in understanding. “And if I wanted to ...et a tattoo?” I teased.Jack laughed at that. “That doesn’t do anything for me. Matter of fact, it sort of gets in the way of the scenery.” I giggled and punched him lightly for that. “Actually, it’s different. Someday in the future, you don’t want the piercings, you can just take the rings or barbells or whatever out, you know? But tattoos, they stay. ”“I’ll be there!”“What about seeing Jocelyn?”“Until I talk to her on Tuesday, I won’t really know any details. But I can manage to drive up to see her from McKinley pretty often.”“How long will she be in the hospital?”“I have no clue.”We got out of the car and walked up the long driveway to the house, then along a brick walk to the backyard where a couple of dozen people were gathered. I recognized a couple of the guys from school, but most of the rest appeared to be relatives. I saw Dale. I jerked him away from her and hit him in the stomach as hard as I could. I had on heavy work boots and I tried to destroy his nuts... but he twisted as he was falling down and I caught his knee full on. I could hear the crunch and knew the knee would need to be reconstructed.Ada stared at me, mumbled, "Oh, Davey!" as she collapsed.Her skin felt greasy and her pulse was racing so I threw her into the van and raced to the hospital. I told them what happened, that it was alcohol and/or drugs.. It was like nothing I had felt in a very long time. The first thing I noticed about him was his smile. He made sure to put me at ease and was a complete gentleman. Meeting a strange man in the darkness can be a little intimidating to say the least. But he made it too easy. My mind raced as we made small talk. He was cute and charming and we were alone. I kept thinking was this something I could do? Did I want to cross this line? Once you cheat, you can't take it back. You can't make it ever go.
