"Red, I'm sorry I...kissed you." I never wanted to have to say that to him. "I was...I don't even know." I reach over and hug him tight. I was scared, I was running on pure adrenaline. I just wanted to know that I was alive.
"You're like my brother, Red. I grew up with you, you always kept me safe and happy and...I love you for that. It's just..." I pull back and look in his eyes, such sad eyes. "I can't...I just don't." I step away when his jaw starts to twitch. I stand away from him and stand silently for a few moments.
"Are we going to be OK?" I chew on my thumbnail as I ask.
