"Candles? They're more like fucking fireworks."
"Make a wish, first!"
Dominic stopped his breath short, his lips a rounded "o" of surprise. He hadn't made a wish on his birthday since he was ten, at least. Liv, the Reminder, nods at him encouragingly and he remembers another time she had encouraged him to make a wish. It was New Zealand and the first star, she thought. By the time they'd opened their eyes, wishes made, they realized at the same time that their star had been a plane. No matter. His wish had come true anyway.
"He'll wish to be Han Solo," Billy teases. "It's what he always wishes for."
"I guess that makes you Princess Leia, then," Dominic shoots back but he's grinning, too.
"Filthy." Billy raises his cigarette and for a moment, Dominic has a very graphic, very prurient thought, bent over his cake
