my hand moves from neck down to her shoulder , then to her side . colt felt exactly as he felt that morning when she 'd denied him the jaw tilt for the first time since he could remember . i only told you that so you would n't be frightened , sweetheart . they just show up to irritate the hell out of me . they were standing on the steps , facing each other . then he was laughing with her . she still loves me , but she does n't remember why she loves me .
