The night it didn’t happen, they were on the beach, chasing a random demon.  Over the dunes, down to the shore, into the churning surf.  It dissolved there, anticlimactically, a floating green scum.

They were bent double, giggling helplessly, clutching at each other; and suddenly, they were kissing, desire all around them like a fog.  Then Harris pulled back, and shook his head, as if rousing himself from a dream.

The memory comes to him, from time to time; a faint, familiar echo in his ears.  His heart doesn’t beat, but it bruises.  Regret sounds to Spike like the sea.
