Adjusting back to everyday life has been strange, but after two full days of college and classes, I'm officially wiped.

Today's Brain and Behavior, and Reasoning and Rational Decision Making has me anything but reasonable or rational.

I still haven't heard from Connor and he wasn't in any of our classes today. I'm starting to worry about him a little, all things considered. He doesn't seem the type to miss class unless there's some very important reason.

I head to grab a coffee as I make my way across campus before heading home.

My thoughts fade to dull background noise as Spell It Out by You Me At Six plays on my AirPods, and I tap on my thighs to the beat while I wait in line for coffee. It's weird not seeing Connor at his normal post, but I place my order once I reach the front and wait patiently, trying not to come off as a weird, awkward potato with this girl like I did with Connor on my first day here.

Once my coffee is in my hands, I make a slow walk toward where I left the car this morning, pausing when I see that flash of blond again. It has to be a coincidence or my eyes playing tricks on me because Iris is dead, and the person I saw was definitely a dude.

It's not like she’d be here on campus even if she were alive, but something inside of me tells me to move, to chase that blond head down, so I pick up my pace and move in the direction that my hallucination leads me as the blond moves farther and farther away, despite me trying to walk faster.

It's times like this I think maybe I should start working out with the guys, but even this isn't enough to make me want to run at 5 a.m. every morning.

The blond turns and I frown, blinking to try and see in the distance.

There's no way that can be who I think it is, there's no reason for him to be here.

I blink again, trying to find the face in the crowd, but it's gone.

That doesn't stop the fear in my heart.

I try to suck in a breath, but it's like my lungs have stopped working. My hands are shaking, and I can't even really feel them, despite one being clutched around my very hot coffee.

My feet start to go numb and the world starts to turn fuzzy at the edges of my vision. I crouch down into a ball, not caring that there are a thousand people milling around me, and try to make my lungs start working again.

This can't be happening.

I escaped him once, there's no way he’s going to come back and want me now, surely.

I'm already dealing with so much, I'm not sure that I can deal with this on top of it all.

The sounds around me are warped, like I’m being held under water, and it's not until I feel someone lifting me from the ground that things start to come back into focus.
