“I ate so much I’m not sure if the winch can take me,” Fritz said, holding his stomach in his hands.

“You’d better go up last, then,” Ernest said, reaching for the winch to their treehouse. “Because I’m going to sleep like a log tonight.”

“I’ll give you a hand with the washing up,” Bill said to Liz, who was stacking the plates.

“It’s okay,” Liz said. “Let’s just leave it on the table. I’ll do it tomorrow.”

“What about the leftovers?”

“We’ll keep the meat, but you can give the vegetables to the animals.”

Bill piled the leftover vegetables onto a plate and went around the corner to the animal pens. He went to the pig trough and slid the food into it. The pigs made quick work of it. Then he opened the gates to all the pens and ushered the animals out. He led the goats and sheep out by their collars and the cows by their bells. With Valiant the bull, he was more cautious, and left him to make his own way out. He left Lightfoot in his stall, the door closed. Bill shut the gates behind the other animals to prevent their return. He clapped his hands and made loud noises, startling the animals into running into the jungle that backed onto Falcon’s Nest.

He went back around to the front of the treehouse and found Liz wasn’t there. He held onto the winch, and pulled himself up. He stepped into the treehouse. Installed on the handrail of the balcony were three steel bells of a similar design to those found in old manor houses answered by serving men. Bill tugged on the wire that led off into the jungle. He shut the swing doors.

Liz was in the bedroom in her nightclothes: a baggy T-shirt and shorts. She was pinning her hair back, looking into the full-length mirror. She was a beauty, Bill reflected. Her natural dark hair had been bleached to a lighter tone by the sun, bringing out the sparkle of her green eyes. The continuous activities in maintaining the home had kept her in as good a shape as a woman ten years her junior. Bill approached her from behind and wrapped his arms around her. She held his arms as they rocked side to side. He kissed her on the neck and nuzzled her ear. She turned around and kissed him on the lips. It was slow, close, and sensual. He felt like she was trying to pass meaning through it to him.

“Shall we go to bed?” Bill said.

Liz shook her head.

“Why?” Bill said.

“It’ll feel like it’s the last time,” Liz said. “I don’t want it to feel like that.”

“It will be the last time,” Bill said, nodding. “The last time we do it with an island full of Lurchers.”

Liz smiled, and leaned her head against Bill’s chest. He kissed her, and then led her toward the bed.
