“Never did anything like that to my sisters,” I tell him. “They were mostly younger than I was.” How have I gotten to talking about my family again? Must be the brandy kicking in.
I roll over on my side so I’m facing him, trying to look at his face and not the rest of him. Really trying not to think about next time and how he might made me work for it. My shoulder twinges as I turn, and it occurs to me that he might want something from me to remember the night, too. “Should ask, because my eyes aren’t staying open much longer, nice as the view is: anything you’d like done right now? Or questions answered? Can’t promise to tell you everything, but I won’t lie to you.”
