Chapter 140
I begin to relax as I head back up the stairs, confident I won’t meet anyone, but just as my foot hits the landing I hear something and
freeze.
It was just a soft noise, a groan, or a moan…
I stand at the top of the steps like a startled hare, not moving a
muscle except my eyes, which dart around looking for the source
of the noise.
Nothing in the hallway moves but…yes. There it is again!
Curious, I listen closely and find my eyes moving to Daniel’s door. I continue to listen for a few moments more and then – yes. I’m
certain. It’s coming from inside.
I let my curiosity get the better of me, perhaps feeling a little reckless as a result of my great embarrassment earlier in the day. Either way, I tiptoe closer to Daniel’s door, careful not to make a sound. Passingly, I wonder if he’s okay and hope that nothing is
wrong…
But deep down, I know what it is that I’ll see when I lean down and peek through the little keyhole of his door.
And as I do just that, my suspicions are confirmed. It’s convenient,

frankly, that Kent never replaced the old–timey locks on the
bedroom doors in this old house, because Daniel’s gives me a
perfect view inside to where he and another person – I can’t see
who–tangle on his bed.
I cock my head to the side as I look, curious. I know that it’s wrong
– that I should give Daniel his privacy, but…I realize, suddenly,
that I’ve never seen anyone have sex before. I blush to realize it. I
mean, of course I have seen it on TV and the internet. But not like
this, never before so…real…
I’m mesmerized, frankly, by the sight of the bodies pressed
together so fervently, tangled so that I can’t tell the limbs apart in the dark blue light of the room. I continue watching as they pull
apart for a moment sit up, changing positions. I recognize the
profile of Daniel’s sweet face, looking down at his lover.
I’m embarrassed, a little, by the tenderness that I see there,
and know I should move away. In fact, I start to do so when the
lover himself turns his torso towards the door. And I gasp aloud
because…
Because I know that face, I know the shape of that body.
Jerome.
I stand up straight, aghast, my eyes wide and my jaw dropping
open.
“Did you hear something?” I can barely hear Daniel’s voice from

inside the room, but I know that I’ve been caught. I scurry backwards, my eyes fixed on the door, when –
Oh my god.
I go stock still as I feel my back collide with something else.
Someone else.

“Good evening, Fay,” I hear that familiar dark voice purr. “Why are you spying on my son?”
