    Summary

    Physical touch with him always felt a bit incongruous to their relationship, though never unpleasant. She welcomed it as an unexpected, familiar presence, like the smell of sunscreen at nighttime. Gentle and somehow nostalgic.

    This time it wasn’t her arm. He was beside her on a hard faux-leather bench, and when he reached for her, his hand found the lowest part of her thigh, just before it curved over the precipice of her kneecap. It was heavy, jolting and then grounding as her pulse hammered in her throat, as her stomach turned, as her breath came fast and harsh and she clasped her hands together to keep from shaking.

    He kept it there until long after Amy Hogan was pronounced dead.
