“You good?” I ask since I have her completely exposed.Virgin. Virgin. Virgin.I’m remembering, alright.
“Uh-huh.” She opens her knees for me.
“Why’s my tree splitting apart?” I ask her, then uncap the Sharpie with my teeth.
“I’m a horny tree.”
My lips upturn, biting on the cap, and I write alongside her hipbone and above her pussy.Donnelly was here.I spit out the cap, just to cup her ass and lick and suck her clit. Her moan and quivering legs are engrained in my brain, top-tier spank bank material. ‘Cause unfortunately I’m not coming inside Luna tonight.
Lifting her panties back up, I rise and cap the pen. “That’s so you never forget where I’ve been.”
She mutters, “Holy shit.”
I grin. Yeah,fuckO’Malley. Fuck anyone who tries to take her from me.
She’s mine.

Whiplash.That’s what it feels like going from a good night with Luna to sitting in a security SUV outside a closed Italian joint in South Philly.
Sun hasn’t risen yet. It’s so dark, and nobody really stirs except the early birds catchin’ the worm. A little old lady sweeps outside a deli.
A recently released felon sits beside me.
Dad.He smokes a cigarette, hand hanging out of the car window. We’re both smoking, actually. I picked him up on Broad and drove to a less trafficked area. Parked here.
We haven’t said much yet. Small talk.Eagles are doing good.Yeah.Yeah.He takes another long drag, stares out at the deli, then asks, “You get the cops to drop my charges?”
I blow smoke out the window. “I don’t think I have that kind of pull, but if I got out, I suspected you might. I saw you at the Rhino. You had an alibi.”
“I was on parole,” he says. “Ibrokeparole.”
I shrug, tapping ash outside. “I dunno what you want me to say. I didn’t make that call.”
He thinks this over, then nods. “Yeah, alright.” After another drag, he asks, “How’ve you been?”
“Fine.”
He inspects my face. “You sleeping?”
You care?“I sleep,” is all I say, my chest tight. “How about you?”
“I’m still kicking. Beats being locked up with those fucking idiots.” He flicks his cigarette angrily out the window.
“Now watch you get locked up for starting a forest fire.”
“What forest?”
We share a small smile. When mine fades, I say, “Are they asking about me? Ollie and the others?”
“They’re wondering why you weren’t fired. I’ve been wondering too, honestly. I gotta say, it stinks. Somethin’ isn’t right.” He eyes me skeptically.
My muscles try to seize. I loosen my posture and reach for a packet of cigarettes. Offering my dad another one. He takes it, still scanning me up and down. I tell him, “I didn’t know the cops would show.”
“You didn’t lead them there?” he questions.
“No.”
