IT'S YOU I
1 CHAPTER XXX
Tod laughed harshly and leaned
forward and put his hands on her
shoulders. He began shaking her
back and forth almost angrily. He
said: "You stop talking a minute
and listen to me. I have loved you
ever since I can remember and you
have never loved anyone but Scott,
You are going to marry him day
after tomorrow and live happily
with him ever after and you aren't
going to need me or anyone else to
help you do it. That's why I'm
clearing Out ..."
His hands slid away from her
shoulders and his arms went around
her and he kissed her. His mouth
closing down hard on hers and stay
ing there.; Then, as abruptly as he
had taken her, he let her go and,
without looking at her, walked
swiftly out of the room. She stood
for moment with one hand flung
over her mouth, her eyes following
his mutely, then she said "Tod 1"
and ran after him. But when she
reached the hall he had gone, and
Scott was closing the door behind
him. 1 ' ,- . ; ' r : : T - -
He came forward and caught her
by the shoulders and held her when
she would have pushed him aside.
He said: "What's all the excite
ment? And why did Tod shoot past
me just now as if he were running
to catch a trainl"
Whitney stopped struggling and
stood still, she said : "He was .
only ifs not a train. It's a boat.
Then she said: "Please let me go.
now, Scott."
Scott let her go and she went and
tat down on the third stair from the
bottom. Her pink linen dress made
t spot of color against the dull green
velvet stair carpet: sunlight from a
window on the first landing fell hori
zontally on her dark, mussed-up
hair. She said: "Tod is walking
out on my wedding, Scott . . . only
be isn't because there isnt going to
le any wedding."
. Scott walked over and stood look
ing down , at her, coolly. He said,
pacing his words carefully: "What
do you mean, no wedding? You can't
wash everything up at the last min
nte, Whit, just because Tod won't
tick around for the fun."
Whitney wasn't paying any at
tention to him, really. She was hold
' Ing onto her knees tightly with her
clasped arms and staring straight
ahead of her, frowning.. She said:
"I'm in love with him, Scott. I have
been for a year. Perhaps longer
I don't know ... r
Scott, made an impatient, dis
gusted sound in his throat and
walked over to her and shook her
by the shoulder. "You're in love
with me. You always have been.
You always will be. It's some sort of
. physical attraction that we have for
each other. I don't know much about
it but it's pretty powerful and
there's no good trying to say it isnt
there . .. . "
on, it's mere, ail right, l mean
it's been there for years." Whitney
lifted her head and smiled at him,
Slowly, without resentment. "If
probably one of the longest and
most steadfast cases of infatuation
on record. It survived a good many
things . . . but eventually it took the
count, Scott. Only I didn't know it,"
.Scott said: "I don't know what
you're talking about. But If you
have any idea that I'm going to let
you step out of my life ...
"If I , remember rightly," said
Whitney, standing up, and smooth
ing down her skirt and straighten
ing her white leather belt, "you
stepped quietly eut of my life once.
. "That's just itl" Scott's voice
was brittle, accusing. ."You know
what people will say i You know
they'll say you did this just for
Pite ... to get even witk jrse for
flstItJidtoyou."

Whitney went up three stairs and
stopped. She said : "I'm sorry,
Scott. I am truly. I know that s
what they'll say and it will be em
barrassing for you for a little while.
For a month or so. But you'll sur
vive it . . . just as you survive every
thing. Nothing can really hurt you,
-Scott, any rflore. That is, not for
very long."
She went on up the stairs then,
her hand trailing "over the slender
polished balustrade.;
He watched her until her shoul
ders disappeared and then the
white leather belt around her waist
and finally her ankles in their whitO
sports socks. Then -he turned and
walked out of the house, closing the
door behind him. He got into his
car and turned on the ignition and
drove away. He drove rapidly, his
hat pulled over his eyes, his shoul
ders slouched low in the car. After
while and when he was on the
speedway and the car was doing a
nice sixty, he began to think co
herently. To make some sense. Up
to that time he had simply kept see
ing Whitney going up those stairs
and bearing her voice, clear and un
accented and sort of friendly, say
ing those utterly incredible things,
But now she had stopped saying
them and had. gone away in her
pink linen dress, and he could think
again. And he thought that Olivia
was back in town and that he had
heard Jthat she was not going to
marry Spencer Scofield, after all
He thought that perhaps in a few
days he'd look her up. They'd fought
terribly and he d made her pretty
unhappy one way or another and
he d never really be in love with her
again. But she was crazy about him
still and if he was seen around with
her a lot for a while, people wouldn't
have a chance to say Whit had jilted
him ... because they'd never be
quite sure ... yes, that was a good
idea. It was a mighty good idea.
The stateroom was small and
filled with luggage and Whitney sat
on the bed under the port and
clutched her patent leather purse in
tense fingers and kept her eyes fast
ened on the door. She was wearing
a brown and white checked silk suit
and a brown straw hat. shiny and
gay looking, and ' she hoped she
looked beautiful but she was afraid
she Tooked scared.
Tod had said : "I have loved you
ever since I can remember" : but he
had not said : "I want to marry you
myself and take you to Paris with
me." And, after all, there was
amerence. ui. course. XI be came
down and found her here before the
boat actually sailed he could have
her thrown off, but 1 supposing he
went to the bar and just stayed
there, smoking and drinking lemon
squashes .' . .. I -l:1
The door opened and Tod thrust
his head in. fori moment he staved
that way, then he came all the way
in ana shut the door and leaned
against it. His eyes, which had been
surprised at first, became slowly an
noyed and then they simply stared
at her with no particular expres
sion at all. 1
She said: "Hello, Tod ... you've
been forever comme . . . '
Her voice sounded small and lost
and her hands were trembling so
violently aU of a sudden that she
put them behind her and leaned on
them. I ,
He took off his hat and skipped
it onto the empty bed and said
"Nice of you to come down and see
me' off, but you shouldn't have both-
ered. . - t
Whitney breathed deeply. She
thrust her shoulders back and made
her voice louder and more convinc
ing. She said: "But I didnt come
down to see you off . . I'm going
wun you.-
. Jod smiled at her. Grimly. With

were going to get married ... less

ing me I had to stay and see you do

'Well, I've changed my mind. I
don't want to marry Scott."
May I ask why not? For some
time that is about all you have
wanted to do ..." - .
I want to go to Paris with you."
See here, Whit, I don't know
what has happened to you. I sup
pose you have quarreled with Scott
or something, but you can t go to
Pans with me. If you ve got to go
somewhere until ' it blows over, go
back to New York and stay with
Helena..." i
Whitney said :f "You are making
it very hard for me but I am going
to tell you anyway even if it's ne-
good. I love you." '
Tod laughed. Like his smile, his
aughter was bleak and quite mirth
less. He said: "Sure you love me.
You always have. But you love
Scott more." j
Let's leave Scott out of it," said
Whitney, desperately. "It's you I
want." - 1 i
He didn't believe her. It was piti
ful to see bow he didn't believe her.
How he simply stood there, npt even
making a move to touch her, his
face white and disbelieving. Look
ing almost as if she had struck him.
She pulled off. her hat with trem
bling fingers and plunged on des
perately: . "Listen, Tod, I love you
terribly. I want to spend all the rest
of my life with you. I want to work
hard and be a help to you. I want
to make you a fine wife . . ."
Tod said: "Good heavens. Whit.
do you know what you are saying?
uo you know you are talking about
you and me and marriage?" His
hands were hard on her shoulders.
They were pressing her back merci
lessly against the wall. His eves
were consuming her. Sweeping over
her face with passionate and fearful
intensity, f 1
She laughed. Jerkily. Her breath
catching in her throat and choking
her. She said: "Whom did you think '
was talking about and what did
you think I was suggesting? i Of
course, I'm talking about marriage.
Too complicated otherwise. Besides,
we re sure to want children . . ."
He said: "Don't Joke about it
Don't you dare joke about it . . ."
and his hands slid down her arms
and tightened Kbout her. ; Then he
said, looking straight into her eyes:
1, C "A. i M . . ..
oajr n againj oay all. say it
slowly as if you meant it"
She said : "I love you. Tod. I want
to spend all the rest of my life with
you . . ." ! : f - '
"Go on, i he prompted, "say the
rest . .V ) I !'
"l want to work hard and make
you a fine wife, darling . . ."
He bent his head. His eyelids
were wet. He said : "Listen, nut,
you're sure about this? You won't
be changing your mind?"
She lifted her hands and drew his
head down and kissed him on the
mouth. She kissed him long and
hard with ber eyes wHe open and
deeply shining. She said: "Now
what do you think?"
He held her with more tenderness
now but no less urgently. He said:
"I think we've been a long time find
ing out about this but I think ifs
going to be worth if Then he said :
"I'm a pretty dull fellow, darling,
compared to Scott . . . a lotiof peo
ple are going to think you've picked
fha 1 w. v. SS ,
the wrong man.
Whitney closed her eyes to squeeze
back sudden tears and her hands
slid down his arms and locked about
his wrists. fWhich will only prove,"
she said sofUy, but with great con
viction, "how little people know
about these things."
