David Sheppard was sitting on his bed as Desk Sergeant Richard Gough entered the cell. Gough, closing the door behind him, was scratching himself.

“I’m a Rent Boy,” watching Gough scratch himself, Sheppard said to the Desk Sergeant. “I like being with you the most.”

Gough, knowing he was about to take Sheppard to bed, smiled broadly.

“I’ve got some more Tina for you,” getting ready to give the boy his injection, Gough said. “You’ll be getting it every day.”

“That,” as the Rent Boy pressed a hand against Gough’s trousers, said Sheppard, “is not the only thing I want.”
