The Loss (Heartache Series #1)
“It was a long road for me, but I’m in a better place now, Al.” We’ve been talking for over an hour. Well, I’ve been talking. Rambling really. By now, we’ve finished our food and are on our fourth beers. She seems more relaxed, more her, but I still have the feeling she’s hiding something.
“That’s great, Jase.” She leans in a little so I follow until our faces are only a few inches away from each other’s. “Do you still have nightmares about…. About the accident?” She whispers.
I hesitate, her unique scent filling the air around us, the beautiful flawless skin on her face and those green eyes that have haunted me for so long. “You cut your hair,” I blurt. What the fuck? I can’t seem to hold a decent conversation with her without saying something stupid or weird. A small laugh escapes her full lips, and she leans back into her seat, so I do the same. Subconsciously, she reaches up and takes a lock, twirling it with her fingers.
