    Summary

    There’s something that sits on the end of James’ tongue. ’You’re beautiful,’ he wants to say. The knife burns in his back pocket. Why else do we pluck flowers, cage animals, if not for love of their beauty? We take the things we want, even if we know they don’t belong to us. Roses deserve open country sides, and birds deserve the top perches of the trees. And yet we keep them.

    Jason deserves to live. But James will not leave without him in the way that he can have him.

    or: a serial killer, a hitch hiker, and the end.
