Summary
Driver and Lars are daydreaming in line at the bank when a man comes in with a gun.
"He lost focus on reality for a few moments as he thought about the look on Lars’s face when he saw turquoise waves pushing themselves to shore for the first time. What would he say about his first tropical sunset? He always had the perfect thing to say. He could listen to Lars talk forever. Now, he was pretty confident that Lars would hate sand with a burning passion, but there were always ways around that. Hell, if he had to carry him around, so be it…

Summary
“I’ll wash your jacket,” Lars says, holding his hand out. The bottom half of Driver’s jacket is dark and stained with blood. (The blood goes all the way around, like it’s not only from Driver’s injury. Lars pretends not to notice.) It’s ripped, next to the zipper, from the knife that was in his stomach.

Lars finds the Driver bleeding in his car on the side of the road. A tentative relationship forms.

Summary
Driver should have left a long time ago. He shouldn’t have even stayed long enough to meet Lars or know his name or any of the other things he thought he swore off. He put everyone he ever met in danger. Yet, he was still here.
