”“You had to do what was best for you,” I said. “You would’ve been forgiving if I had done the same.”Kara kissed me on the cheek and snugg...led her face into my neck. Having both been very tired, we both fell asleep almost instantly. When I woke up, Kara was nowhere to be found.

Rav laughed "I've always enjoyed a good storm, when I was little, Brand's Grandfather Stephen used to hold me up to the window, I would unfurl my wings and let the storm blow over me, it was great fun, I have very fond memories of Stephen."

I could file this away in my things-my-parents-will-never-know-about folder, next to my encounter with Uncle Walter andmy run in with Monica Bond. Except, there was one small detail I hadn'tconsidered. That detail was Austin.Since the day Austin showed up at my locker, with those blue gray eyes,and goofy smile, things had been fucked up.

I love you Eva, I would deny you no pleasure." But I'm not sure... I mean I like it, but I don't know if I want to live it all the time." I know, I've worked that out too."

Her antics always amused.
