Torch
“the pool, after hours. The fact that Hux must have heard about us by now and hasn’t reacted makes us comfortable here.We don’t pretend to train anymore. We just hang out, and make out, to the extent we can.“Not yet,” I tell Kai. “I’m waiting until I can be more positive.”“What’s so bad about Flynn?” he asks.“He’s a player,” I say. “Nate used to tell me stories of how he tossed girls aside. I don’t want that to be Regan. It’s her first boyfriend.”“Maybe he’s changed,” Kai says. “People do.”“I kn...ow,” I say. “But this is my best friend.”“If it’s a mistake, it’s hers to make. Sometimes people need to take chances.”He’s talking about us, and I see the parallels, but deep down I feel that the risk I’m taking on Kai is less serious than the one Regan’s taking on Flynn. Even though Kai could kill me. I suppose it’s stupid and irrational. The difference is that I’m inside my relationship, and I trust Kai not to hurt me, whereas I’m outside Regan’s relationship and I don’t trust Flynn not to hurt her.MoreLess
