The Lost Boys (2012)
“She had the urge for a cigarette for the first time in a year and a half. She was too old for this sort of thing.
How long had it been, Lucy wondered, since she had been on a date? And a first date, at that?
She and Lance had gotten married right out of college. It had been the thing to do back then, get married right away. People hadn’t adjusted back then to couples just “living together.” Plus there was always that grand and glorious specter of Vietnam. You might as well do what you c...an today, whether it was to get married or drop LSD, because tomorrow the guys would get drafted and next month they’d be dead.
It was a different world now. And Lucy was out in it, entirely on her own.
Enough philosophizing, she told herself. Get into the restaurant!
She walked through the front door of the Sea Cloud.
Max was waiting just inside. He smiled his roguish grin as she entered the room and plucked a rose from a bouquet on a table against the wall.MoreLess
