I HAVE NOT THOUGHT about that moment in a very long time. I’ve thought about that night a lot, yes — what happened later. Because that’s the night I told you what I told you as the morning light began to finger its way inside the room, and you put your hand against my head, and after yanking the story from myself like it was a barbed, endless tapeworm I leaned into your palm and, finally, rested. Yes, I’ve been remembering that night off and on ever since I read your book. And I remembered the ...fight with Kyle the second I locked eyes with him at Winners. But I’d forgotten all about that in-between time, the calming-down period, your enormous Adam’s apple glowing in the shadows, how you told me I had the opposite of a whore/whore complex and next thing I knew I just wanted to open up my throat and down all the alcohol in the world. If I’d thought I could absorb it through my pores, I would have filled up Wade and Kyle’s bathtub and climbed in for a soak.
    I didn’t remember it until I started writing about it.
