It was the full daylight of morning when we woke up, still tangled up in one another. I was bleary for my first few moments of wakefulness, and for an instant, I thought I was back in my former life. When Lucas and I had lived together, we’d always slept with our limbs in a knot, never really pulling away from each other.

“Lucky,” I murmured, gently shaking his shoulder to rouse him. But he was already awake.

“Do you remember, right before Jamie was born, when we drove out to that old farm for a picnic?”

“Mmhm.” I felt him trailing a finger lightly over the exposed flesh of my shoulder.

“And you were just, like, so huge, so pregnant, but I drove you out there and it’s hot as balls, and I get you on the blanket and I’m trying to feed you grapes or whatever and you’re just so miserable…”

I chuckled lightly. “Yeah. I remember.”

He paused, then spoke very quietly: “I don’t know why I made you do that. Why I made you go out there with me.”

“What?”

“You didn’t want to go. You were tired and hot and uncomfortable. You wanted to eat ice cream in the air conditioning, but I made you go…” He sounded so sad, so very, deeply sad.

“You just wanted to do something nice for me, Lucas,” I whispered. “You wanted for us to do something special, just the two of us, one last time. You know, before the baby.”

“But I didn’t listen to you. I never fucking listened to you.” He untangled his body from mine, and I saw that he was wide awake, and I wondered how long he just let me sleep there, cradled in his arms.

“No,” I agreed, “not often.” He stood up and zipped up his pants, buckled his belt. “But I loved you anyway.”

He sniffed, canting his head to the side so a few flaxen locks of hair fell into his eyes. “Loved?” he asked.

“Love.” I said.

And it was true, no matter what I might have privately told myself. I loved him, in many ways more than I ever had. He was the silent pillar holding my family up, making it possible for us to go on under the worst of circumstances.

I climbed out of bed and asked Lucky to take me back to the funeral home, where I’d left my truck the day before. I changed into jeans and a tee shirt, peeked in on Jamie, and grabbed my purse.

In no time, we were back on his bike, and I was back with my arms around his waist again. We sped down the highway, picking up speed, and the bright morning sun beat down on us.

I didn’t notice the cars following us at first. I was focused on the air on my skin and the sun on my back. I was focused on my arms around Lucas’s waist, and the smell of the warm pavement. But then I noticed that Lucas cut quickly across all four lanes of traffic to
