Sleepless in Seattle deli scene faked it. I should have felt bad, but in the bright light of a new and important day, me feeling guilty wasn’t on the top of my list. Nor was reflecting on why I’d been unable to respond to Patrick. No, that would mean admitting that Liam’s interruption had an effect on my sex life and I so wasn’t going there. Patrick left around midnight, none the wiser. Amazing how easy it is to fool a guy into thinking you’ve had a mind-blowing orgasm. Anyway, he still had some packing odds and ends to handle for his hiking trip before he came with me to the courthouse. We agreed it would look good if he was all decked out in full pilot uniform for the arraignment. Uniforms impress people. Hopefully, it would impress the judge enough to drop the absurd charges completely or at least consider releasing Jane ROR. If anyone deserved to be released on her own recognizance, it was Jane. Maybe I could blame my lack of sexual spark on worry over one of my best friends in the world?
