They were quiet for a long time and Day felt like he could fall asleep again until Gods rough voice broke into his haze.You want to talk about it?Day took a deep breath and thought carefully about his answer. God massaged his shoulders with his strong hands and Day almost said he didnt want to talk, he just wanted keep being massaged. But there was something really important he needed to say.Cash. Thank you for yesterday. Day spun around in Gods arms and faced him. Ive never been that scared in my life. At first I felt that if I died now, then its okay, because I died while I was in love and I died staring into your eyes. But when you said what you said. Day placed his palm over Gods heart and felt the rapid beat there and he closed his eyes. You said youd have no soul, no conscience, and youd take your revenge. Thats when I got scared.God cast his eyes down.You have to promise me. If anything ever happens to me that youd go on. Thats the only way Id die in peace. Youd live for me. That youd mourn me and then go on and love again. Youve come so far in your life. The things youve endured and been through made you strong. Some men have gone through less and it drove them to do unthinkable things because they couldnt handle the hand life dealt them. But you lived through it and now youre a highly respected detective. Day gripped Gods chin and lifted his head. He kissed him passionately. And youre the man I love.Day didnt need God to answer him in words, his eyes and his kiss said it all. He told Day that hed live for him.
