Chapter Nine

The rest of the night I can't sleep. I go back and forth between crying bloody tears all over my bed as I toss and turn and being angry. So angry that I offer to take Ursula back out to hunt and to run in the wilderness of the mountains.

I am not typically the hiking type, but right now, I need a place to vent.

Guilt wracks me as I let her loose so I can be alone to ravage what I can find, screaming and cursing him with my words.

None of it is real, none of it sticks. It's just the pain coming out before it eats me alive.

Some people talk about how relationships can end and leave behind scars. I never knew what they meant until now. It's like I can sense the rips in my heart, cracks growing like in the summer drought. My whole body feels like it has cuts and scrapes, and maybe it does from my tantrum in the mountains, but I think it’s deeper than that.

Will anyone be able to see it tomorrow? My pain?

I can't skip school, even though I don’t want to see Kagan. I don’t want to face what’s become of us so head on, but there will be too many questions from the wrong people if I don’t show.

I guess the one thing I have to look forward to tomorrow is that I get to be public with my relationship with Dru. I don’t know how he will react to it, but it’s a comfort to know I won’t always be walking the halls alone. Maybe I won’t even have to face Kagan alone.

When I get back to my bed in the wee hours of the morning I cannot force my eyes to close though I am all cried out. So, I pull out my phone and text the one person I can talk to right now that might be awake.

I may regret it, already being far too needy in the first 24 hours of our officialness, but I need him there tomorrow. If he doesn’t want to be around me after that so much, that’s fine. Just tomorrow.

Hey.

I really should think of some better greetings. My men deserve more than a trivial "hey".

Hey, thought you were supposed to be wrapped in the arms of another tonight. Couldn’t quit thinking of me?

I can’t believe I actually crack a small smile at his antics. What a silly demon.

Long story, but there's no arms here but mine right now.

Ah. Asshole strikes again. Need me to make him jealous tomorrow?

I don't want to use you. You already said you felt like you were a second or third choice. I just hurt is all. Angry. Upset. I don’t know how to face him.

Nah, sounds like fun. He deserves it. Leave it up to me. See you soon.

I turn on my side and cozy up under my blanket as Ursula jumps on the bed with ne, a rarity that I appreciate. I bet she can tell I am not taking it well.
