On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

“You’re cheating.”

“Am not.” He rolls his eyes. “There are no rules to this. Jesus.”

She purses her mouth. The afternoon still stretches ahead, an unbroken road of heat and boredom, and if he’s not going to play fair, she doesn’t want to play at all. She props her bare feet on the porch rail.

“Okay, okay, your rules.” He edges closer, and she sniffs as he sets the swing into motion.

“You were crunching.” She pretends to pout when he slides an arm around her.

His kiss is salty-sweet. “Only licking now, promise.”

She grins around her Tootsie Pop.
