Chapter 24: Almond, as Always

Brody slept in my room that night, because of the photo.

"She stood on the sidewalk and aimed a phone at your window," he said, locking the door. "I'd like to be in the room."

"You'd like to be in the bed."

"You're so wet for me."

"Because you talked about my curve."
