The question is, how did you fall? The answer is somewhere in the accumulation: the sixth meal, or the eighty-eighth laughter, or the ninth orally induced orgasm. At the fifth or the eighty-seventh, or the eighth, they could have remained standing. It is the sudden novelty: they way says he is ‘sleepy’; her method of scrunching her nose when she is amused. Otherwise, they have remained standing. It is this combination: He sat in the driver’s seat with her knee in his hand and the smell of gasoline and the Jackson 5 in the air. She sat up straight for once, shivering from the cold and there were noisy cars outside and teenagers out past curfew gathering on the streets. You're not stars in the constellation, not fly and spider, not books in the library. Now you're lovers.

And love comes pouring into San Diego with no end in sight.
