When You Run, You Eventually Have to Stop (2 page)

“Sure.”
 
Derek stood, and surveyed the contents
of his cup.
 
“This has gone
cold.
 
Do you want another?”

Dec
handed his mug over, having forgotten to drink any of it.
 
“Thanks.”

“I
don’t see you picking up that phone yet.”

“Just
go!”

Derek
laughed, and Dec called him back before he shut the door.
 
“You’re not too bad a brother, you know
that?”

Derek
smirked.
 
“Don’t go all gay on me,
bro.”

“Get
stuffed.”

Alone
again, but filled with a new sense of purpose, Dec picked up his mobile and
hoped Simon would be as amenable as his brother had just proved himself.
 

His
hand slightly shaking, he pressed Simon’s number and waited for him to answer.

Sean
Kennedy is a procrastinator, a hider, and writes far too infrequently for his
own liking.
 
It probably comes from
living in the most isolated city in the world, but hey, they have quokkas so it
all balances out in the end.
 
Sean
is extremely happy that
Twin Peaks
is
returning to our television screens, but there will be blood if Cooper and
Audrey don’t end up together.
