THREE = third actual sex scene between Don and Charlie. (I think the one where Charlie jerks off wound up being labeled as ZERO and Don actually accounted for a MINUS ONE and MINUS TWO earlier on. *g*)
I honest to God hate writing porn, so I only put it in when it was demonstrating some important point in their relationship - it's just that a lot of the important points in their relationship were demonstrated through sex! And, yeah, I definitely found it more effective to let the creepy violent bad guys be mostly creepy and violent offscreen.
I wound up going a little bit crazy about the dates - some things just actually were that way, when I looked them up, like Christmas and Hanukkah coinciding in that year. I also, because I am a crazy person, wound up looking up the local weather for the night they escaped. (I had to arbitrarily choose some weather to describe, and I figured I might as well go ahead and use what had actually been happening - likewise I looked up the freeway routes and locations of rest stops. *g*)
