was in another boy's bedroom. The other boy had a red crewcut and green eyes and thin lips and a long, freckled face, just like Stephen. The cartoon boys kissed. Cartoon-Stephen asked the other boy why he had to return home by eight. He received no answer. They kissed again.

Bullwinkle tapped FASTFORWARD. The cartoon boys kissed again and again, lips, necks, lower, they unbuttoned each other's shirts and kissed shoulders and chests and nipples and bellybuttons and blurred, red, blue, yellow, green, blue.

Bullwinkle tapped STOP, then PLAY.
