I shouted over it.‘It’s the vastness. The emptiness. It takes my breath away.’He nodded.‘One can lose oneself out here. Be careful, Miss. The ...sea can change you forever.’He saluted, turned away and strode back towards the lights and the partying crowd. He was right. I felt changed; lost and afraid, as though standing on the edge of a great unknown. Though my past was with the bustling raucous throng, my future was with the powerful silent sea. I jumped.‘Cabin two-two-three.’He stopped, half. “I’m famished.” I did, but during dinner I wished I’d taken the time to break the dry ends off, because twice those stems were caught in my teeth. “We should’ve done it right,” I admitted, grinding my fingernail between my molars to get at the mini-green-bean-tree lodged there. “I know it,” Dyl nodded at me. “We could ask Scotty to help us out.” “What?” I asked, thoroughly confused, but Dyl was confused, too. “Don’t you think?” he asked, looking at me all open and waiting for my response.. I look around waiting for D to tell me what to do and he points to my leathers and I know he wants me to undress so I do. When he points I go down on my knees?
