I’m off to see Garrett. He’s at the drive-in with Amy Jo. I want to see what she’s up to. Just as I expected, she’s cuddling up to him like he’s her dream date. It’s a beautiful night—there’s not a cloud in sight. The sky’s black as tar and peppered with stars. It’s October, my favorite time of year. The air’s just a little bit cool and filled with the smell of burning leaves and leftover rain. The movie’s in full swing, The DaVinci Code—a re-run—that’s all they show here. They’re at the part where Langdon falls down a well. Garrett lifts his arm and swings it around Amy’s shoulder and smacks her in the jaw with his elbow.

“Uhhhh—!” she says and rubs the area below her cheek. It’s already turning pink. He got her good.

“I’m sorry,” he says, “I—I—I’m a little nervous.

He tries to pat her cheek, but she pulls away, so he leans in to kiss her instead

“Oh Amy Jo,” he moans and put his lips on hers.

She starts having a coughing fit. He hands her his coke.

“Are you alright?”

She nods and takes a sip, but not before wiping off the straw with the sleeve of her sweater.

When Garrett tries to kiss her again, she lets him. His eyes are closed. Hers are open wide and rolling in their sockets.

I want to smack her right in the face. I do the next best thing. I grab her coke and pour what’s left of it over her head. Ah—there’s more left then I thought.

“Garrett Jennings!” she yells. “What is wrong with you?”
