Longarm And the Arapaho Hellcats (2013)
“He could hear them talking quietly, hear the water splashing softly, as he gathered wood and started a small fire in a well-sheltered stone ring. A few times he heard Casey sob, but mostly the women talked, Cynthia consoling her friend, trying to quell the pain of all that she’d been through.
He had the fire burning well, the camp set up, and coffee brewing, when the women returned. They sat down on the blankets that Longarm had rolled out, and gathered other blankets around their shoulde...rs, staving off the chill. Longarm glanced at Cynthia. She did not return the look; she seemed to be sheepishly trying to avoid meeting his gaze.
When the coffee was ready, Longarm poured them each a cup and added a liberal jigger of whiskey to each. He handed out the rest of the jerky, and they sat around the fire, nibbling the jerky and sipping the coffee. No one said anything. Casey stared sadly into the flames, as did Cynthia, who had one arm draped over her friend’s shoulders.MoreLess
