Today is the day.

In two hours, I will be in Boone’s house.

Like a child coming home from a long field trip, I am running in my heart, with my eyes on that door, that safe, familiar door.

And I don’t care if Nathan sulks all evening. I can’t let him ruin this gift.

“So, tell me about this Boone guy.”

We were having breakfast. Wheat cereal for Nathan. Peanut butter and jelly sandwich for me.

“You haven’t seen him in how long?”

I washed down the head rush with a glass of milk. “Told you, seventeen years.”

Nathan licked his finger and flipped to the business section. “And he was your best friend? Why did you guys drift apart like that?”

I set my plate in the sink. Saturdays, Nathan is on dish duty. I was itching to jump in the shower and go for a ride. “I told you, they moved.”

“Right. I get that. But, you never looked him up, or—”

“No.”

Nathan’s expression was somewhere in between befuddled and suspicious. “Strange.”

Some of the world’s most precious treasures have turned to dust at the slightest touch. Sometimes, the past is better left undisturbed.

“So he’s a cop, huh?”

I nodded and headed for the washroom, but Nathan slipped his fingers around my wrist. “He straight?” His fierce gaze punctured my confidence.

“He’s married, Nate, I told you—”

“Well, that means squat.”

“Trust me,” I returned, freeing myself from his clutch. “There isn’t a queer thing about Boone Lund.”
