Five days and absolutely zero fucks later, I'm so desperate for a naughty that I'm practically salivating, sitting here next to the pool and watching Ronnie as he swims laps. I don't think he's noticed that I'm here yet, but that's fucking fine with me. I'm more than happy to sit 'ere and watch his muscles ripple as he parts the water with strong strokes, propelling that perfect form of his through the water. His ink looks twice as bright submerged beneath the perfect blue surface, and I find myself sucking in a breath that I forget to let out until I get so lightheaded that I start to sway.

“You alright?” Sydney Charell asks, pausing next to me, a cuppa clutched in her hands and a sleepy look on her face that's at odds with the tightness around her eyes. As soon as Ronnie and I got back from that awkward little encounter with his parents, Sydney was standing in the living room having a screaming argument with her younger brother. After an epic fucking row, she stormed up the stairs and hasn't left since. I guess for now, she's living here, too. Just one big happy Goddamn family. Ah, the bloody irony.

I blow a puff of smoke out and do what I've been doing for days – forcing my mind away from the overwhelming wash of pain that comes whenever I think of my sister. It's been so bad that I haven't even gotten up the courage to call my father, to tell him, or to see if he knows. I mean, shit, he must, right? Nobody's asked me about the funeral. My throat gets tight and I take another drag on my durry.

“Just peachy, babe,” I tell her, snuffing the cherry out in a nearby ashtray and closing my eyes as a warm breeze breaks across my skin. I'm still torn between loving it here and being miserable. It's nice to be off the tour, away from Ice and Glass, away from Stephen, but somehow, I feel like we got off too easy. If I was a betting woman, I'd say this wasn't over yet. Not by a long shot.

“I'd stay out of the kitchen if I were you,” she tells me as Ronnie breaks the surface of the pool and folds his arms on the edge, smiling at me with dark hair dripping into his face. I smile back and my heart skips a few beats. My cunt, not so much. She hits every beat, letting the desperation I feel downstairs hit me up top. My nipples get hard as rocks and I find myself crossing my arms over my chest to hide the reaction from Sydney. The fingers of my left hand and trail down and probe gently at my wound. I'm feeling a fuck of a lot better. Now, if I could only convince Ronnie of that. “Turner just got off the phone with the hospital. No change in Naomi's condition and nobody seems to know exactly why she's not waking up.
