He wasn’t exactly perfect either.
Or maybe that was the reason why Andy never wanted Seb and I too close.
I liked to fantasize about Seb.

Chapter Forty-One
SEBASTIAN
I saton the damn balcony with a beer.
The table between me and the empty chair, now holding my collection of beer bottles.
Lucky number seven was going down as smooth as lucky number one.
I stared out to the spot where the ocean touched the horizon.
Like a seal - locked up tight in this new reality.
My brain decided to be metaphorical in its newfound place and loneliness.

Was it fair to think she and I couldn’t actually be something real?
I wasn’t sure of that.
