“I’m so worked up, I barely feel the biting cold as I hurry across the street without my jacket, only in my long-sleeved tee. I kick at a trash can as I make my way past shops and restaurants, then bang my fist against the wall. Not enough. Pain flares in the back of my eyeballs. My head throbs. This was a fucking mistake—coming back to Madison, agreeing to talk with Erin. Holding her. Kissing her. Tasting her. I’d been so perfectly happy for a moment… I never thought I could feel that way a...gain. It was as if my past had fallen off me like a crust of old mud, leaving me free and light. Then reality crashed back down around me. The look on Erin’s face when the last tremors left her body. Her plea to be told why I left. She may think she’ll understand, but I doubt it. She won’t understand why I never told her about Dad. The dark secrets, the nightmares, the drugs… None of it. She’s clean. Perfect. The only perfect thing left in my life, and I’m not gonna fucking sully it with the past.MoreLessRead More Read Less
