Chapter Thirteen

The day after the wedding a car picked them up at the bed and breakfast in Vermont and drove them back to Burlington where Harrison’s jet was waiting for them at the airport. Morton made them stop along the way so that he could go to at a pet center and pick up a few things for Nico. Harrison was always generous to a fault when it came to giving the right gifts, and giving Nico as a wedding gift was the most wonderful gift anyone had ever given Morton. But Harrison could also be totally clueless when it came to the reality of certain situations. He never planned ahead for anything. He failed to realize that a dog needs food, bowls, a bed and other incidentals. If it had been up to Harrison, Nico would have been eating fast food take out like the rest of Harrison’s band members.

Of course Morton didn’t mind in the least, and as long as he knew how to handle the realities and the small details for both of them he knew they would be okay. He was coming to realize that Harrison had a good deal to learn about being married, and his drinking and drug use kept Morton awake at night tossing and turning. Morton was determined that he could change Harrison. They were in love and Morton believed love would never fail them.

When they boarded the private jet in Burlington, Morton found it amusing that Nico went right over to the new black tufted doggie bed and found a comfortable position. It was as though Nico had been with them for years instead of a day. He settled into that doggie bed better than Morton settled into his soft leather seat. Morton had only flown commercial until he’d met Harrison, and it still made him feel peculiar to know he was now flying the world in a private jet just like the people he’d seen on TV.

He thought they were going back to New York. “I guess I should start clearing out my apartment today,” Morton said. They were about to take off and Harrison was sitting across from him on the other side of the jet. “I’m going to have to rent it out to someone. I can’t bring myself to sell it. That apartment has been in our family since before I was born.”

Harrison was looking as his phone. Without looking up, he said, “We’re not going back to New York.”

“We’re not?” This was news to Morton.

“We’re heading out west,” Harrison said. “I have a place in Palm Springs. I’m playing Coachella next week and there’s no point in going back to New York now. We might as well be in Palm Springs as a makeshift honeymoon. You’ll love it.”

“Palm Springs? California?”

Harrison glanced up from his phone and smiled at him. “Yeah, I have a little place out there. Have you been there before?”

Morton shook his head. “I’ve never been west of Philadelphia. My two dads traveled the drag circuit up and down the east coast.
