He walks around to the other side of the van, opens the door, and takes his position in the passenger seat. “What’s going on with you tonight?”

Do it, Rory. Just do it. Say it.“I’m feeling kind of horny. How about you?”

“I’m always horny around you. Have you changed your mind about us?”

Hell, no.“I’m not really in the mood to talk,” I say.

“Damn…” He smiles a lazy smile. I see it out of the corner of my eye while I keep my gaze glued to the windshield.

You can do this, Rory. You have to do this.

The condom Callie and I stole from our brother’s dresser drawer sits in the ashtray. I grab it and toss it to Pat. It lands in his lap.

“Just in case you’re not prepared.”

He drops his jaw.

Then I grab a bottle of Coke from the cooler between the two seats. A very special bottle of Coke. I unscrew the cap and hand it to him. “Drink up. I don’t want you getting dehydrated.” I shove the van into gear and start to drive away.

“Where are we headed?”

“I don’t know. Feel like a drive?”

“Not really. You want to know what I feel like?”

“Oh, we’ll get there. I thought we’d drive for a while. Work up…you know.”

“Nice,” he says.

“Could you hand me a Coke?” I ask, gesturing to the cooler.

He nods and takes a big sip of the bottle I gave him.

Good boy.

Then he reaches between the seats, grabs another, opens it for me, and hands it to me.

“Thanks.” Dazzling smile time. I take a sip.

He takes another sip of his.

Good. He needs to finish his Coke before we park.

“I’m so thirsty.” I take a few more sips.

He follows suit.

Yup. I knew I could get him to drink the Coke if I drink one with him.

Pat Lamone is such a lemming.

Earlier, Callie and I ground several Benadryl tablets into powder and mixed them in the Coke that I gave Pat. It should be enough to put him to sleep, but I need to drive around awhile, make sure he finishes the entire bottle.

I can do it.

We thought it all through.

I’m going to call Callie and Jordan, and they’ll know exactly what’s going on once we get to the parking lot.
