Maybe walking will clear my head.
Of course, walking doesn’t really help, but at least I won’t run the risk of crashing. The way I’m feeling right now, it’s best not to operate heavy machinery.
I navigate the streets of Bangkok with relative ease now. This area, at least, is one I know. This is a good thing, because I’m so deep in thought, my body is functioning solely on auto-pilot.
By the time I reach the Golden Gun, I’m no closer to a solution.
Still, I smile as I walk into the room, seeing the gang all there.
It seems like no matter how shitty things get, their presence always helps.
I hug each of them in turn, glad they’re okay after the kidnapping fiasco.
Apparently, it takes more than an enraged mafia don to keep us down.
When I get to Percy, I all but collapse in her arms. My head resting on her enormous tits is at least somewhat of a comfort.
“What happened?” she asks, pulling me harder against her.
“I tried to tell Eggs, but he just wouldn’t let me!” I whine in irritation, words half smothered by her chest.
She doesn’t even complain, just holds me there like she’s my mother, and I’ve got the world’s worst scraped knee.
“Well, then maybe he doesn’t need to know.” She pats my back, totally driving home the mother illusion.
I pull back from her, needing to look her in the eyes.
“I don’t know what to do.”
She nods in understanding, snaking her fingers through mine.
“I mean, it’s not like Iwantto tell him. I’m fucking terrified to tell him. But, doesn’t he need to know? He’s about to marry me, for fuck’s sake.”
“Maybe. If he’s avoiding hearing it, though…”
“He doesn’t even know what he’s avoiding! I might already be married to Lock!” I half yell. “That’s definitely the kind of thing he needs to know.”
“Yeah,” she says, resigned, “kind of hard to get around that.”
Glad she sees my point, I continue, “Even if Icould, though, how am I supposed to live with that? He obviously trusts me, and to marry him now would really be fucking him in the ass.”
I glance at her for confirmation, but Percy doesn’t say anything.
Instead, the hand that’s been casually holding mine tightens into a death grip.
Her gaze grows hazy, far off.
I swear to God it’s like she’s having a stroke.
“Percy?” I ask.
“Say that again,” Percy says.
“Say what again?”
“That last bit. Hurry up, Sams. It’s important!”
I look up at my eyelashes like I’m trying to rewind the cassette tape of my brain.
“If I marry Eggs…it’ll be fucking him in the ass?”
Percy’s face lights up like a winning pull on a slot machine.
“Sams.Iremember what happened last night.”
