Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you?

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.
