I brought some tools and electronic equipment, too.How about clothes?She stared at him blankly. What do I need with a lot of clothes cluttering up my equipment case?

I’m going to do penance while we’re out here.Her eyes sparkled. Great! Your bed or mine?He laughed in spite of himself. She was the only person in his life who’d ever been able to make him feel carefree, even briefly. She lit fires inside him, although he was careful not to let them show too much. You never give up, do you?Someday you’ll weaken, she assured him. And I’m prepared. I have a week’s supply of Trojans in my fanny pack…He managed to look shocked. Cecily!She shrugged.
