sorry to ask, but I’m just craving it so much. My previous high has come down a notch.”
    “By all means.”
    It was the least I could do for her considering what she was about to go through on account of me.
     
    Sophia Durant’s Diary
    October 17, Eleuthera Island, Bahamas
     
    I picked up Julie from North Eleuthera Airport on the morning of the sixteenth. She walked into the lounge wearing a backpack I recognized from our school days. We hugged and kissed and held hands. I got goosebumps from the excitement I felt at seeing her and touching her. She looked around.
    “I can’t even get a coffee in this shack of a place? They call this an airport?”
    “This is a tiny island, Julie. There’s not a whole lot here.”
    “Tell me you have a town with shops; I only packed an overnight bag with maybe two changes of clothes.”
    “Yes. There is a town called Governor’s Harbour where you can purchase whatever you like. First, we’ll go to the villa, drop off your gear and we can have coffee there.”
    “Lovely. I can’t wait to see it all. Weather here’s amazing.”
    “Wait till you see more of the island.”
    “It looked amazing from the sky coming in. Like a very long finger or a snake or something like that.”
    “It’s paradise.”
    “Will I see the world famous beaches with the pink sand?”
    “Of course. A trip to Eleuthera could not go without.”
    Seeing her and speaking to her now calmed my nerves and relaxed me after the recent tense days I’d been having. I had not tracked Ava’s calls at all or her whereabouts; I was trying so hard to put that whole episode out of my mind.
    The palm trees passed in a blur as we traversed Public Highway under a deep blue canopy of clear sky.
    “This is a sweet ride. Stafford’s?”
    “No. Mine actually.”
    “No way!”
    She was genuinely astonished.
    “A gift when I got back.”
    “No fucking way. He’s in love with you.”
    “Not necessarily. It could just be about the sex.”
    “How does he act around you?”
    “He’s a hard man to read. He’s employed me to do some email/phone hacking for him. I don’t know what that might tell you.”
    “Interesting.”
    “He’s recently had another girlfriend. But that was only very brief and now she’s…sick. So we’ll see what happens with that.”
    “Sick how?”
    “I don’t know.” I lied. “She’s just very weak. Hospitalized, I think. Some kind of bug, I suspect.”
    I was telling what I assumed to be happening since I had no real information to back this up with.
    “I’m sure she’ll be fine.”
    “Of course.”
    “You think it was more than just sex for him?”
    “Again it’s hard to say. I can’t get any real read on his thoughts.”
    “Still no clue what he does for a living? To make all those billions?”
    “Billions?”
    “Don’t pretend you don’t know.”
    “I know it’s millions or billions. I’m not sure which. I never researched him.”
    “You’re kidding me.”
    “Not at all.”
    “Why not?”
    “Some things are just better left to the imagination, I find.”
    “Fascinating. You are bizarre.”
    “When did you figure that out?”
    “God, I’ve missed you. I know neither of us is gay. That’s just a label. I mean, we have sex, but that’s just like a lot of masturbation with another person. It’s not an affair of the heart per se. But…I can’t describe it. I just get the deepest feelings for you. It transcends friendship or sexuality or anything else.”
    “Love?”
    “It transcends love.”
    She smiled.
    “Beautifully put, mon ami . Beautifully put.”
    Julie watched our surroundings in quiet anticipation. We passed through the gates and took the dirt road deeper into the jungle. The first white pyramid of a roof poked through the trees and she gasped. Then the villa came into view.
    “This is a amazing. I’ve never seen anything like it. My family has money. But nothing like this. I feel like I’m entering Jurassic Park without the dinosaurs.
