I Can’t Let You Go 35

::THIRTY FIVE:: “I’m sorry.” In the end it’s all I can say, whispering it over and over as I hold her, my nose buried in her hair. I don’t know if sorry can make up for the things she’s had to hear but I can’t stop it anyway. I’m sorry. Her arms are wrapped tight [...]

I Can’t Let You Go 34

::THIRTY FOUR:: “She really doesn’t like me much, does she.” Candice’s voice, sharp and hard, can still be heard from the kitchen. D’s already shushed her once, or tried to but I know that’s never been much of a help. Candice will continue until she’s done, whether you think she’s done or not, she’s been [...]

I Can’t Let You Go 33

::THIRTY THREE:: It’s already late, the sun slanting through a small gap in the curtains in a ray of pale light across the foot of the bed. She had kicked the sheets and blankets off her in her sleep and the band of light fell over her ankles in a ribbon. I’ve been awake for [...]

I Can’t Let You Go 32

::THIRTY TWO:: I called Alvarez once we got back to the motel, kissing Jeanette softly before she padded over to the bathroom to get cleaned up. She’s singing to herself again, almost so quiet I can’t hear her. “Sorry, it’s late Alvarez.” It’s about seven o’clock now, I would have called sooner but didn’t want [...]

I Can’t Let You Go 31

::THIRTY ONE:: The room still smells faintly of chocolate, so does her skin, the massage oil making it softer than it was before, if that’s possible. She’s sleeping soundly, letting out an occasional sigh when she rustles in her sleep, always wiggling closer to me. She’s cute, in a way that makes me grin every [...]

I Can’t Let You Go 30

::THIRTY:: “I thought you had some sort of a heart attack on me, Vetter. I thought I’d have to call 911, maybe get them to send an ambulance out to that motel and get you kick started.”

I Can’t Let You Go 29

::TWENTY NINE:: My head hurts. That’s putting it lightly. It’s cool in the motel room, the smell of rain making everything feel that much cooler, the air almost crisp. I usually leave the curtains open at home. Lets face it, I haven’t cared to close them, or even pay that much attention to them. Jeanette [...]

I Can’t Let You Go 28

::TWENTY EIGHT:: She’s definitely not kidding. Just shy, so very shy and unsure, in her own maddeningly seductive way. We’re standing so close I can almost feel her heart race and her breath is shallow. If I didn’t know her better I would think she was afraid. She’s somewhere between fear and excitement, staying as [...]

I Can’t Let You Go 27

::TWENTY SEVEN:: I didn’t move when I woke up with her on the couch, still curled up with each other in the same positions we were in when we fell asleep. Her weight shifts in tiny movements as she works her way out from under my arm, stilling when I move a little, before continuing [...]

I Can’t Let You Go 26

::TWENTY SIX:: I sat out there for a while running through several different ways to ask her, turning the ring over and over in my hands. The more I said it, the less nervous I felt until I sat with my elbows resting on my knees holding her ring. Hers. Jeanette. Who I wanted to [...]
