“I only did what any decent person would do for anyone in distress,” Jason says without looking over at Boston.

“Anyone?” Jayden repeats, her tone sarcastic.

“Anyone,” Jason demands.

A large screen behind Jayden switches on displaying the following quote, ”I still believed Jason was too quick to admit his feelings and give his trust to her.”

“Tiffany at the book review blog, Read, Breathe, Read, is right.” Jayden directs her statement at Jason. “The real question is whether or not you were too quick to admit your feelings and trust her.”

Check in next Wednesday, February 13, 2013 to find out.

Suddenly machine guns appeared in the hands of each of the men and women in the bleachers above them. And the weapons in Jason and Boston’s hands disappeared. They looked around in surprise. For the first time, Jason felt defenseless. …It was too dangerous for Boston to be here.

“I’ll stall him while you get away,” he said.

“I’m not going to tell you again! Either we get out of here together or we die together,”Boston said with such finality that it awoke the first desire Jason had for living since viewing the video clip of his father’s murder.

TOWARDS THE END Of DISEMBLANCE:

Jason scans the sea of mirrors for Boston, but her reflection is transmitted into thousands of look-a-likes. Blood oozes down her leg. Time is running out. for Jason to save her.   …Like dominoes  one by one, the mirrors begin to explode. Somehow, he must shut the program down before the real Boston is blown apart.

As the lights come up for our talk show, What’s Up with Jayden Weaver, the female character, Boston Komen, from DiSemblance is seated beside Jayden Weaver, our hostess.

“So I have to know,” Jayden says, “What happened between you and Jason?”

Boston blushes. “What do you mean?”

“You were so close at the end of DiSemblance.”

“He was there for me,” Boston whispers, staring at the empty space above the audience, as if lost in a comforting daydream.

“But something happened,” Jayden prods..

A SEGMENT FROM THE EPILOGUE OF DISEMBLANCE 

…For the next twenty minutes, Jason rode the nighthawk motorcycle behind Boston in silence, enjoying their closeness. They reached Knobs Park, and she dismounted with excitement.

“Race you,” she said, sprinting off down the path.

Jason lost a couple of seconds realizing what she meant, but then he took off after her. Even with her hurt leg, she was a faster runner than him, and her head start was just enough to keep him at bay. Giggles escaped her, as she reached the oak tree and started climbing. He hit the tree only seconds behind her and jumped, grabbing at her foot, barely grazing her shoe.

“I won.” She smiled down at him and continued climbing.

By the time he crawled onto the tree house platform, she was lying on her belly looking down at the fox’s den with her binoculars.

“You’ve got to see them. They’re so cute.” She sat up, handing him the binoculars.

Jason took the binoculars and lay down focusing on the ground far below them. The mother’s leg had healed well. Now, her pups were mischievous balls of fur chasing each other around the area just outside the den.

Jason sat up.Boston was studying four photographs she had set down in front of them.

“Which one’s the best?” she said.

Jason picked up the picture of the three year old neighbor boy being squirted with the hose by his six year old sister. Somehow, she had captured an exquisite mixture of joy, anger, and love beguiling his face.

“This one.”

She bit her lip tentatively, nodded her head, and took the picture from him.

“That’s my favorite, too.”

“Do you want me to go with you to get permission from their parents to enter it in the contest?”

She shook her head and lay down on her back on the wooden platform. He lay down next to her. A robin flew across the clear blue sky. She took his hand and glanced over at him.

“Thanks, I just needed to share.”

This week’s preview teaser comes from the end of the first chapter of the upcoming book called Boston’s Quest. 

It is written from Boston’s point of view. 

I sit in the back seat as Bruce climbs into the driver’s seat and Jason slides into the passenger’s side. The garage door opens. The police vehicle backs out and then rolls down the street. The tension inside the car is so thick I feel like I might suffocate. We move through the neighborhood in complete silence, stopping only once to let Jason out to ride my motorcycle home.

 “Thanks,” I say, twenty minutes later when Bruce stops in front of my house. Jason is already there. He has parked my Nighthawk and is climbing into the front of the car as I climb out the back.

“Wait,” he says, rolling down his window so he can hand me my motorcycle key.

Our hands touch and I say, “Good luck.”.

“Have a good life,” he says.

I nod and the car takes off down the street. As I walk towards my doorway, I feel lonelier than I have ever felt before.
