Highway 71 stretched in front of my car, black asphalt scrolling beneath
my wheels. Seven hours into my drive back to Austin, I was wondering
why I hadn’t just flown Southwest.
Sometimes I like taking a long road trip by myself—listening to my
music, relishing the freedom of knowing I absolutely, positively can’t work
on my thesis for a while. I’d enjoyed most of this drive back from New
Orleans, but now that the sun had gone down and I still had an hour to go, I
felt restless.
Maybe if you hadn’t left your car charger at home, where it can do you
exactly no good—
I groaned, thinking of my cell phone in my purse, dead for more than an
hour now. Instead of putting on my favorite high-energy playlist for the
final leg of my journey, I was at the mercy of the radio. Every station
seemed dedicated to putting me to sleep.
Then again, it was late. After ten P.M. Most people were winding down,
taking it easy as they listened to mellower music, maybe snuggling up to
someone they loved.
A sultry Latin number began, soft guitar and thumping drums suggesting
sensuality with every beat—and reminding me how long I’d been alone.
My last breakup had taken place four months before. Sometimes I
missed Geordie, even though I knew splitting had been the right choice. At
age thirty, he’s still in party-hearty mode, while at twenty-five I already feel
more grown-up than he probably ever will.
We’d always been more friends
than red-hot lovers anyway. Our sex life—well, I couldn’t blame Geordie
there. Probably most women would have been more than happy with what
he had to offer. I was the one who had longed for something Geordie
couldn’t provide.
At least you told him what you really wanted. You finally trusted
someone else enough to tell, and that alone counts for something, doesn’t
it? He just couldn’t go there with you.
But I’d felt so shamed. So exposed. I’d confessed my deepest fantasies
to Geordie, hoping he’d play along, and instead he’d freaked out. Oh, he
tried to be sympathetic, all “But why do you think you feel this way?”
That’s what I pay my therapist for. What I needed from him was something
a whole lot dirtier. A whole lot scarier. And gentle, funny Geordie couldn’t
give it to me.
Maybe I was being the rigid one. I figured I shouldn’t condemn a guy
for not getting off on the idea of forcing a woman. So I reminded myself,
Geordie gets to have limits too—
The steering wheel jerked in my hands. I managed to keep my Civic
from spinning out, but barely. It wobbled violently, pulling hard to one side
as I guided it onto the shoulder.
