So what? That's all it is. I've never slept with her. But he already knew that, though he didn't tell Harry that.

That doesn't mean a damn thing. That could have to do with her and not you. There was no joking in his eyes or words. This was no joking matter to him, but Harry laughed and conceded the point.

That's true, it could. And then suddenly, he lay back against his pillows and looked up at the ceiling, feeling an odd closeness to his father he had never felt before. I don't know, Dad.' I was crazy about her when we first met, but she was as locked up as a stone ' she still is. He told him about the rape then, and Harrison pretended to hear it for the first time. I've never known anyone like her before. I guess I've always known that I'm in love with her, but I've been afraid to fuck it up by telling her that. This way, she won't run away. The other way, she might. His eyes filled with sudden tears. I couldn't stand losing her. I need her too much. Harrison felt his heart sink like a rock, but he had to think for his son now. That was all he really cared about, all he would let himself care about now. He had finally found him and he wasn't willing to lose him again. Not even for Tana, whom he loved so desperately. But Harry's words burned through him like fire. I need her so much.' The funny thing was the elder Winslow needed her too, but not as Harry did, and he couldn't take her from him, not now.'

One of these days, maybe you should be brave enough to tell her some of this. Maybe she needs you too. Harrison knew now how lonely and isolated Tana had been, but even Harry hadn'tfully realized those depths.

And what if I lose?

You can't live like that, son. Afraid to lose, afraid to live, afraid to die. You'll never win like that. She knows that better than anyone. It's the one lesson you can learn from her. And there were so many others he had learned from her too. Lessons he would have to abandon now.

She's got more guts than anyone I know ' except about men. Harry shook his head. She scares me to death as far as that goes.

Give her time. Lots of time. He fought to keep his voice strong. He couldn't let Harry know. And lots of love.

Harry was silent for a long time, searching his father's eyes. In the past two and a half weeks they had begun to discover each other as they never had before. Do you think she could ever be in love with me?

Possibly. Harrison felt his heart tear again. You have plenty of other things to think about right now. But once you're up again, he avoided saying on your feet, and out of here, you can think about things like that.
