I heard a bit of a gasp, and then whatsounded like someone doing an over-exaggerated swallow.Then the first voice spoke."C'mon," he said, "don't stop....I took two more noiseless steps forward, and then I had to stopmoving, because it felt like I'd been hit in the head with a two-by-four.I heard the unmistakeable wet sounds of sucking, like a person tryingto get in the thickest frostiest milkshake ever made.

I lifted my other foot and he took off the boot, kissed my toes, and smiled at me while he placed the boot.
