Ever since I lost Gerry in the war, all of a sudden people think they can speak for him - but they're saying I should move on, forget him. That that's what he'd want. But they don't know how badly I betrayed him. How I left him when he needed me the most. It was Don't Ask, Don't Tell, and when he died, I took it to heart. When it comes to love, I'll never ask or tell again. Trouble is, now Shane is in town and the way he makes me feel, it's hard to resist wanting to shout it from the rooftops.

When Jason walks in to the paddock, all the parts of me I thought were dead suddenly come alive with a vengeance.
