Olivia

I couldn’t sleep. It was nearly three in the morning and I’d been tossing and turning in bed. Sleep eluded me no matter how hard I tried. I even counted sheep just for the heck of it, in hopes that the sandman would visit me and put me to sleep. But no matter how hard I tried, nothing worked for me and my brain continued to play out the argument I had with Logan.

I didn’t mean to break your heart but what we had scared me, Olivia.

Our whole world revolved around each other and I had dreams and aspirations and so did you.

I was so scared that we couldn’t reach them because we would weigh each other down.

His words continued to haunt me and for the first time since Logan Crewe threw my heart on the ground and trampled on it, I thought of why. The night he broke up with me, I wanted an explanation. I deserved an explanation but no matter how much I begged him then, he wouldn’t say anything. I could’ve harassed him but I gave up on it too.

I couldn’t go after him, I was going to have Amy and I didn’t want to focus on my broken heart when I was about to become a mother. For years, I tried to avoid thinking about it. You could say that I’d been running away from it and refusing to face it. Maybe it was one of the reasons why no matter how much I thought I’d prepared myself, I still didn’t want to face Logan.

Because I didn’t want to think about all the whys of the downfall of our relationship.

With a deep sigh, I rolled out of bed and tiptoed out of my room. Amy was fast asleep in her room and I quietly climbed down the stairs, heading to the kitchen. I didn’t want to turn on the lights, not wanting to risk waking up Logan.

“You still have heavy footsteps. It’s a good thing Amy’s a heavy sleeper.”

I gasped, my eyes widening at the sight of Logan nursing a cup on the kitchen counter. “You’re awake.”

He glanced up at me, his eyes rimmed slightly red, and dark circles framing them. “I couldn’t sleep.”

“And you thought coffee might help?”

Logan let out a deep chuckle. “It’s warm milk. You taught me that it helps a person get through the night. I’ve been having it every time I can’t sleep. You’re having one too, aren’t you?”

Pursing my lips, I didn’t answer his question. I went to the refrigerator, took out the carton of milk, poured it in a mug, and then headed to the microwave to warm it.

Neither of us spoke and the timer of the microwave filled our tensed silence.

When my milk was done, I took the mug and was ready to head back upstairs.

“Liv.”

I stopped but I didn’t turn around to face him.

“I’m sorry.”

My heart dropped at the words and I fought the urge to turn around and look at him. Logan was never the type to apologize.
