Larry POV



Alive?

"Yes, they knew all about the plane, falsification of documents ... everything."

How you find out?

"Um ... I just know. Look I know it's your Dad, but he has lots of enemies who couldn't wait to turn on him."

He a bastard, always been. Flynn you need know ...

"Don't worry Baby, I know you had nothing to do with it.


She get up and leave the room.

I glad she still call me 'Baby', but why she so chill about everything? It like she don't care what they did. My head hurt and I not know what to do.

I really need talk to my brother, when I dialing Flynn come back in. 

She wearing the fluffy robe we got at the villa. Flynn smiles, take my phone and lay back down on her stomach. I put my head back on her butt and look at the ceiling fan again. I call Laurent later. I can do this on my own.


Flynn, we need talk, tell me why you so calm.

"Hmph ... well ..."


Well she do talk. Really talk. Lot.

I really talk. Lot.

We talk about everything.

Me and Flynn always been open, but this conversation was extra deep and intimate. I never let anyone in this much, but she ... she make me feel safe. I tell her things only my therapist and brother know. Some things they don't ... And she understand. Give me support.

Flynn so kind, empathetic. She tell me a lot more about herself too. She like a ... like a, I not have the word.

We only know each other a short time, but I feel like I know her my whole life. 

Our connection deep. I feel it.

Flynn now lay on my legs, her damp hair tickle my thigh when she move her head. I watch her lips moving. She talking with her hands. I close my eyes and I think I zone out ... I hear her call my name.


"Larry ... Larry, you still listening?"

Um yeah.

"We've been talking so long, I think my hair is dry ... Larry."

Huh.

"I said we've been talking for hours."


I look over at the clock.


It been almost 3.

"Wow. You're obviously bored?"

Never Bébé. You know I never get bored with you. Come up with me. You sure you not think I ... crazy?

"Please, no crazier than me."


She get up, lay next to me and play with her robe.

I move her hand and untie the belt. She put her arm up and let me open it. 

She have different jewelry in.
