“Fuck the book,” he muses, and then hauls me forward. “Just like I shall fuck your cunt with my tongue.” “Oh Jesus,” I breathe. He’s dirty talking again. “How does a man like you have such a filthy mouth?” “Sit on it and find out,” he cajoles.”

“I’ll try to keep up.” Brooke pats my hand. “You take all the time you need. I’m just happy to have another human along so I can enjoy the walk. If it was just me and Taushen, he’d get impatient with how slow I’m going and sling me over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. He doesn’t understand that part of the fun is the journey. So you take your time. If you need to go slower, speak up. They sometimes forget our legs aren’t as long as theirs.” Her kind words make tears spring to my eyes. “Thank you for being so nice to me.” She looks over at me and sees my tears, then gives me an impulsive hug. She smells like sweat and leather but I’m sure I smell worse. “Don’t cry. We’ve all been there. Some people fit into this right away as if they were born to be stranded on an ice planet. Some of us struggle more than others. You’ll find your way. Just be patient and more than anything, be kind to yourself. This life’s hard enough as it is.”

“H’nah?” My name is so soft on his lips that I almost miss it. I turn to look at him, fascinated by the way he says it, like it’s half swallowed. “Yes?” “What words are allowed?” He glances at the ceiling, then looks over at me. I blink at him, trying to follow. “What do you mean?” “When we were alone on the beach,” he whispers, his gaze locked on my face with a stunning intensity that makes my cootie hum louder. “You said that I spoke of inappropriate things. I want to know what words are allowed.”
