It was completely dark when we got back to the cabin. I told him to kill the headlights as we came up the drive, so that my parents could be kept asleep, blissfully ignorant of today’s happenings.
He came around the passenger-side door and open it for me, I told him, “ Tomorrow I can’t do this, my parents are getting a bit suspicious. This was supposed to be our trip together before I go back to school.”

I got in the shower wiping getting the lakes water off me, even though the water was scolding, I couldn’t warm up.
