Chapter 10 (Dana):

I hear those kind of stories in the news all the time and cringe. You know the ones. The ones that make you take pause. That make you want to change the world, but you are forced to do nothing but sit on the couch and watch. I hear them all the time, but for it to happen to someone I know? Someone I care about. It’s doesn’t seem real. Alex’s story was horrific. I’ve spent most of my life in some form of treatment center, but I don’t think I’ve ever heard a story that tragic. I honestly don’t know how she has stayed so strong. I can’t believe all this time I’ve confided in Alex about my pathetic life when she was living a literal hell inside of her. I feel like the worst friend in the world. I know Sam feels the same way. Her, Logan and I have talked about it. Logan was surprised too. He’s never been a huge fan of Alex, but after hearing her story he developed profound respect for her. He was pissed as hell that no one did more to help her. Although I am sure any decent human being would be pissed off after hearing her story.

I saw the look in Gunner’s eyes as she told her story. I know him too well. I knew there was nothing that was going to stop him from going after this guy. I didn’t have a right to stop him either. Alex deserves her happy ending. She deserves to feel safe. I just, I trust Gunner, but this guy sounds like a real monster. He sounds connected. How in the world is Gunner supposed to end this guy without getting killed? I can’t lose him, and I’m terrified I will. Not to mention I have to be careful when and where I express my fears because Alex can’t hear that I’m afraid. I have to pretend I am totally fine with it. I know she already feels guilty. I don’t want to make that worse for her. If she finds out I’m struggling she will make it her personal mission to stop him and bring him back to me. Not that anyone could deter Gunner once he’s set his mind to something, but it would only make things more complicated and potentially put Alex in harm's way. That’s the last thing any of us need, especially Rex.

Right now I’m literally hauled up in my Nashville apartment wearing oversized sweatpants, watching rom-coms and drinking hot chocolate. I can’t get my butt to move, because then worry sets in. I’m pretty sure I haven’t consumed anything other than the aforementioned hot cocoa. Sam’s checked on me a bunch of times, but she is busy and overwhelmed like the rest of us. Apparently Alex left town yesterday to go back to Missouri with Rex. I don’t know what’s going on but Sam was pretty tight lipped about why she left so abruptly. She’s definitely keeping something from me.
