I have no idea what it seems like from the outside, no idea either what it seems like for him, but I get the real sensation that when I’m with him, whatever it is we are doing, even if it’s arguing about something stupid, we are doing it together as a team.

Mom might see that as sibling camaraderie, Marvin perhaps as something akin to affection, but whatever it is, I know I can’t get enough of it.

I feel like we are about to embark on a secret mission. As far as Mom is concerned, we are preparing a picnic, a walk in the hills, maybe a bit of sunbathing to while away the day. It’s a hot lie neither of us are going to deny, that makes my whole body giddy with excitement.

What Mom doesn’t see going into the bag is the large pack of extra large condoms, what she doesn’t notice in the almost innocuous touches Landon gives me, is the light squeeze at the end of them, that turns his fingertips almost imperceptibly white and tells me everything I need to know about what he’s planning for us to do.

I am short of breath when we are ready to go, and it isn’t because I’ve been particularly active getting to this point.

“Sunscreen?”

“Check.”

“Food?”

“Check.”

“You know where you are going?”

“GPS.”

“Rescue whistle?”

“Rescue whistle?”

“I don’t think that’s necessary, Marvin.”

“You’d be surprised.”

Tingly pussy? Family pack of condoms? Huge cock? Desire to be immoral? Check, check, fucking check, check.

Mom funnels us out of the door so quickly it’s almost like she’s trying to get rid of us. I barely have a chance to collude with Landon about our plan either. One minute we are having breakfast, and he makes a suggestion, the next we are packed up on the edge of the property saying goodbye to Mom and Marvin.

I’m not complaining at all, I’m just surprised it’s been this easy to get away. I thought we’d get a volley of questions about what it was we were thinking of doing, a million obstacles placed in our way to stop us achieving it. God bless the doctor who told Marvin he had to rest up. Thank God for that mystery illness in the first place.

“Your Mom really wants to fuck. Now I know where she gets it from.”

“Don’t. I can’t think of anything worse. She’s just pleased we are getting along that’s all.”

“She’s not the only one.”

“You could be a bit more subtle.”

“You’d like it a lot less if I was.”

“Maybe.”

From the car we can see the window to the house, but where I expect Mom to be standing, waving at us, she isn’t.

“They are either fucking or talking about how to cope with what we are doing.”

“I don’t know which is worse.”

I put my hand on Landon’s crotch, just to feel it. Just to make sure it’s still there.

“It’s not going to have gone anywhere you know.”

“I know, I just-. I’ve wanted to do that all morning.”

Landon guns the car into action and guides it out onto the road.

“You think we’re going to fuck this much when we get back home?”

“Definitely not if you’ve got the internet we won’t.”

I whack him on the arm for that, even if I know he’s joking.

“I guess we’ll just have to make time for it.”

“There’s always time for it.”

“You don’t think we’ll get bored?”

“With you? No chance. When we’re bored, we’ll just change position.”

Sun leaks off the edge of the road like sparkles from the edges of a diamond.

“Landon?”

“Yeah.”

“I want to go somewhere we can lie under the canopy of a tall tree.”

“Ok.”

“And then I want you to make me scream until that tree shudders and all of the leaves come tumbling down around us.”

Landon smiles at the poetry.

“I’ll do my best to look for the tree if you take care of the scream.”

“Deal.”

“Deal”

I squeeze his arm and rest my head in the bulge of his shoulder.

“Today’s our last day.”

“Then you better hope we find a cell signal so you can store my number in your phone.”

“For emergencies?”

“When you can’t get to sleep.”

“I’m going to miss that.”

“I’ve told you already I’ve got a bed you’re going to fall in love with.”

“A bed too?”

Landon gives me a smoldering look of agreement.

“I knew you were dangerous.”

“Come on, we’ve got a forest to find.”

Resting my head on Landon’s shoulder, with the sun bleeding in through the windshield to warm my skin, my stomach turning knots over what we’ve got planned today and the possibility of what awaits us, I could not feel closer to understanding the true meaning of perfection.
