Prologue

"Why? Why put yourself through that? Tommy! Answer me!" Jason demanded.

"Because I love her. I have to know."

"This is ridiculous. I don't see the point in this. Why would you do this to yourself?"

"I already answered that question. I'd prefer to go alone anyway, so…"

"No way! I'm going with you, Tommy!"

"If you insist," Tommy replied casually. "Insistent today aren't we, Jason?"

"Tommy… I think this is a bad idea," Jason admitted.

"I think you're being paranoid," Tommy sighed.

"I think you're obsessed."

"Like I said," Tommy smiled, "I love her."
