all of them were in the air , except one and it was sitting on his shoulder picking flesh from the old mans ' face . i let him lead me , while looking back to make sure mack was n't following us and it was a good thing i did . something over his shoulder caught my eye . she tapped him on his chest . she must have found her notes . he knew this ; his friends knew this , but not a one of them said a word . but it always smelled so good .
