My fingertips grabbed his back as I pulled him closer.

The giant bed had more than enough room for us.

I lost my mind more times than I could possibly attempt to count. Phrases shot through my mind but were easily reduced down to words and then finally down to letters. Or just nothing…

My body stole everything I had to offer.

And I gave it to Ash.

He returned the same to me.

Our moment.

Our connection.

I opened my mouth to tell him something, but he stole my moment with a kiss. The kiss brought the end of our moment… but what a fucking ending it was…

As Ash rolled to his side, away from me, he touched my shoulder and made me move too.

We faced each other, both breathing heavy.

Ash’s amber eyes were calmer. Kinder. A sense of the real him. A side that he probably never showed to anyone. Not even the guy looking at him in the mirror.

With my right hand still shaking from everything, I reached out and touched Ash’s cheek. Then I moved my fingers up to the scar on his head. The scar that made his hairline look so perfect.

Remember all those stories he told me that day? Which one was true? Which story led to this scar on his head and the scar that he hides behind?

My mind began to race with a story. Or an idea. Or something to write.

I swallowed hard and moved my hand away.

Ash rolled to his back. “And the thoughts still rage, angel.”

“Sorry,” I whispered.

“No need to be sorry for that,” he said. “You’re the most honest person in BFH.”

That made me shiver.

Honest?

I thought about what Lizzy wanted me to do.

To dig for the truth in one of the worst ways possible.

Unless…

“You should try it,” I said.

“What?”

“Honesty.”

“I’m always honest, Belle.”

“You say a lot, Ash. I’m not sure what is real.”

He grinned. “It’s always about the accident. Not sure why it matters. What’s done is done. Time moved on. Hearts moved on. The scar is still there. That’s the one piece of time that stopped.”

I swallowed hard.

I reached for Ash but he moved quickly.

He rolled out of the bed and I pulled the covers up over my body.

“Ash?” I called out.

He didn’t answer me.

“So that’s it?” I asked. “You’re going to get dressed and bolt? You going to go text Hil? Uly? Or call them?”

Ash grabbed his clothes and looked at me for a second.

Then he grabbed my bag and ripped it open.

He took out a notebook and a pen.

He flicked both to the pillow where his head had been resting.

“Write it out, angel,” he said. “I’ll check up on you later.”

Ash left the bedroom and I shut my eyes, my face burning with embarrassment.

I reached with my left hand and touched the notebook.

He wasn’t like Uly and Hil. He couldn’t write music or play an instrument. He didn’t write lyrics or poetry or anything. His voice was in tattoos.

But even still…

He understood it.

What it meant to me.

I opened my eyes and my eyes were full of tears again.
