I almost throw my phone. The thought of him finding another girl…
No.
No. I can’t go there right now. It’s too much to contemplate.
ME
That’s not fair, you know what would happen, besides…
I almost don’t type it.
And then I can’t help myself.
He hurt me, I want to hurt him back. Ass I look around and hear the laughter of my co-workers and really think about the situation, I realize the only person that can end this is me.

ME
Besides, it was just a fling, right?
I want him to say no so bad.
Instead.
He says nothing.
I would prefer yelling, but all Sookie gives me is absolute silence. Horrible silence that makes your brain go to all the dark places… thinking all the worse thoughts.
And I only have myself to blame.
I hate myself.
The rest of the day goes by in a blur. I force a smile and try to stay busy but the amount of times I stare at a text gone unanswered, is obscene. I\wonder if I just ruined the best thing that ever happened to me all because I was afraid.
All because I told myself I was protecting his career.
When really, I wonder if I was really trying to protect my heart.
Chapter Five
Sookie
I’ve never wanted to throw my phone so much in my entire life.
Instead, I stare at the screen and wonder how many cracks I’ll take to demolish the words I just read.
Fury washes over me. Fury and anger. And goddamn outrage over her words.
A fling?
I have ink on my body from this “fling” I have scars on my soul from this “fling” I have wounds still bleeding from this “fling.”
Fling?
My breathing becomes erratic and I quickly realize that I’m in a bad place, worse than before. I can’t stop it. I can’t breathe… I can’t.
