Scotty asked softly, the tenderness in his voice bringing tears to press and sting against the backs of her eyes.  "Who hurt you?" "No one," Gus murmured. "Tell me," he whispered, his eyes black and bottomless in the porch light. "Look, I appreciate the help, but it doesn't entitle you to butt into my life.  Why don't you go turn something to gold and leave me alone?" "I can't.  God knows I should.  I don't want to leave you alone." "I'll hurt you," she said. "Go ahead.  Take your best shot.  I'm not leaving." "No.  I mean I'll really hurt you."  He frowned in confusion at her seriousness and slackened his hold on her wrist.  She stepped away.  "Stay if you want to, Scotty.  I'm going inside.  I'm doing you a favor, believe me." Okay.  The best he could do was give her a high score for originality and watch as she walked into the house and closed the door. "I'm not afraid of you.  You hear me, Ms. Miller?"  he bellowed into the darkness, his voice echoing through the quiet neighborhood.  "You don't scare me.  I'll be coming back."
