Tracy Island, Saturday 11, 9:30 am

Gordon found Alan sitting by the pool. His younger brother was sprawled in a lounge chair, a tall glass of lemonade on the table next to him. He was engrossed in a book; Gordon couldn't make out the title from where he was standing. He jogged down the steps and sat down on the chair next to Alan.

"Hey."

"Hey," Alan replied without looking up.

Gordon rolled his eyes. "C'mon, you're not still miffed at me, are you?"

"Nope," Alan replied unconvincingly.

Gordon plucked the book out of his brother's hand. "Look, it was all in fun, and you know it." Then he grinned. "Though that fifty will help with my new dive mask."

Alan scowled and snatched his book back out of Gordon's hands. "I'm trying to read here." He quickly found his page and turned his attention back to his reading.

Gordon sat back on the chair and watched Alan out of the corner of his eye. Alan didn't move. After a few minutes, Gordon started whistling.

Off-key.

On purpose.

After two minutes, Alan slammed the book down on the table. "What? What do you want?!"

Gordon grinned. "I was just thinking..."

"I thought I smelled smoke."

Gordon ignored the jibe. "Since the...accident, things have been pretty tense around here."

"Yeah? No kidding," Alan snorted as he picked up his book again.

"Anyway, like I said, I was thinking. Dad's still on the mainland with Mom, and Scott's away..." Gordon's voice trailed off.

Alan looked up, a wolfish expression on his face. "Go on."

Gordon leaned back and put his hands under his head. "Did you know that wet spaghetti, applied to...for instance, the edge of a bureau drawer, when dry, achieves the consistency of hardened cement?"

Alan smirked, his blue eyes twinkling. "No, Gordon, I didn't know that. Are you sure?"

Gordon shrugged nonchalantly. "Well, not one hundred percent. It was just something I read once."

Alan put his book down and got to his feet. "Then I think we'd better go and investigate this, just to be positive."

Gordon got up and bowed, one arm extended towards the house. "After you."
