CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE
TEMPERANCE
By the time I walked in the entrance of my dorm building, the headache I fought all weekend returned. What the fuck was that? Not only Damian, which shouldnât have been a shock at all, but Asher?
While heâd had his moments, Asher had never been outright cruel for no reason. In the rec gym, I believed he was mean because he was embarrassed, or maybe he felt betrayed in some way with the way I felt about Damian and certainly by the things Iâd said to him.
In that cafeteria just now, however, that was completely and totally un-fucking-provoked. That was coldness and rudeness for no damn reason other than to be a shithead. And a shithead he was. A girl could get whiplash talking to those two.
No, not any girl. Me. I could get whiplashâbecause I was the only girl they treated like that regularly. They were jerks to everyone every now and then, but I was the only lucky recipient of their attention on such a large scale.
Lucky me.
As I stepped off the elevator and headed toward my apartment, my fists balled at my sides. I wanted to hit something. I still hadnât gotten the key to the gym back from Asher, and I needed to. Only, that would require talking to the fucker, something I had no plans of doing any time soon. I needed to hit something, but I guessed it was a good thing I didnât have the key since strenuous activity wasnât good for my head right now.
Even the psychologist had told me to take it easy when I went to my initial appointment on Saturday. He told me I should have rescheduled, but I was absolutely not about to do that. I needed help, and I needed it fast.
Unfortunately, it went about as well as I imagined it would.
âTell me about yourself, Temperance,â heâd said.
Yeah, okay, sure. Iâm eighteen. Iâm a Gemini. Love the beach, but never been. Pizza is my favorite food. My parents and 137 other people were brutally murdered by gun or blown to bits right in front of me, but I donât remember any of it. I was the sole survivor, and it looks like my phone might have been cloned to involve my mom, who wasnât supposed to be there. People might still be after me, so I have to hide out in a school full of assholes who haze and torture me daily. A raging psycho named Lily is after me, and I havenât even tried to look into her because Iâve been too busy dealing with the aforementioned assholes. I let the worst of those assholes finger me in the hallway because I couldnât resist. I want to fuck his best friend. I also want to fuck my best friend. All three together would be splendid. Iâve discovered a love for edibles. And I love to read.
It didnât go like that, however. It was just as I knew it would be. âIâm eighteen. I was in
