It was almost like our camping trips: Jesse on her bed and me atop a sleeping bag.
Except no tent this time. And we’re snuggling on the patio outdoors on this special starry night.
With the morning sun Jesse awakens first, stretching and smiling at me.
Too soon we’re traveling.
She senses where we’re going. “Dr. Quinn is ready for you,” the receptionist says upon our arrival.
Jesse climbs onto her bed. I lie down beside her. We snuggle. My best friend again smiles — as if to reassure me that everything will be OK.
