Midnight sun. Sean kept his eyes to the worn boards under his feet, familiar now. Tomorrow, they could pick the ripening ground-hugging blueberries. Viggo's secret cabin, his grandmother's birthplace, felt like home to him after the last two months here. Fading paint matched sky; water, smooth as glass, pure as primeval crystal. They'd been reflected upon it in pure form, too.

Each fortnight a bush plane flew in with supplies. Otherwise, it was only them.

They made do with: Minimal furniture.
Basic foods.
Kerosene lighting and heating.
A few well-loved books.
Conversation.
No technology.
Long walks.
And lots and lots of sex.
