Chapter Thirteen

Kennedy

In my dreams, all I could see was my mother. It was a good dream. We were back in her garden, planting her favorite pansies and violas. We even talked for hours while sitting on her back-porch swing.

When I opened my eyes, I realized it wasn’t just a dream. The disaster that I liked to call last night’s memories came back with a vengeance. I remembered everything. How I snuck into Reed’s media room and hacked into his government files, which could’ve seriously gotten me into a lot of trouble. I betrayed his trust which really hurt deep. I couldn’t blame him if he never trusted me again. I was so eaten up with all the emotions that I never really thought of the consequences.

On the other hand, I definitely wasn’t prepared for seeing the killer at my mother’s house. No wonder Reed kept everything from me. I was a ticking time bomb waiting to explode. Now that I had, I felt relieved. Maybe it was because Reed was still with me, his body right up against mine with his arm around my waist. I didn’t want to move. Then again, my eyes felt like sandpaper and I had no doubt I looked like complete and utter shit. I went over the edge last night. For the past two weeks, I felt it coming. I didn’t realize I’d fall so hard so fast.

Reed saved me last night. If he hadn’t been there, I would’ve lost my mind.

Reed’s arm loosened around my waist. “Good morning.”

My heart raced. “Morning,” I said, feeling the burn in my cheeks. After last night, I didn’t know how things were going to be between us. Reed let me go and sat up, and I did the same. Buttercup was by the door, sprawled out on the floor.

“You okay?” he asked.

Taking a deep breath, I turned to him. There was no annoyance or anger on his face when he looked at me, only concern. After what I did, I thought he’d be furious at me. “I’m just embarrassed,” I admitted honestly. “I’m not a deceptive person, Reed. I want you to know you can trust me. I’m going to step away.”

His lips pulled back in that sexy smile of his. “Oh, I know you are. That’s why Faith is coming to get you this morning. I think she can help you.”

I nodded. “Sounds good. I miss having a friend.” Amy was all I had but I couldn’t be anywhere near her right now, not when there was a killer hunting me. She needed to be as far away from me as she could. With everything going on, I haven’t had the time to talk to her every day, but we still managed to text which was nice. Everyone was on high alert back in Belmont now that they knew about the killings.

Reed’s smile faded. “I know.” His phone beeped and he pulled it out of his back pocket. “It’s from Faith,” he said, showing me his phone.
