Winter

Present

I blinked my eyes, waking up, and immediately winced as I

rolled off my side and onto my back. Shit. Pain shot through

the left side of my neck, and I bent it, trying to stretch it out. I

didn’t think I moved all night. My whole body was kinked up.

I never slept that deep.

Sitting up, I slid my legs over the side of the bed, rolling

my neck and ankles before stretching my toes to a point.

“Ugh,” I groaned.

I was exhausted. I rubbed my eyes, feeling that they were a

little swollen and achy.

Then it came back to me. The dance at Michael and

Erika’s engagement party last night. Damon and me. Damon

trying to taunt me with what he was going to enjoy with my

sister.

I’d cried. A lot.

I’d come to bed, locked my door, and sobbed into my

pillow, because I couldn’t stop myself, and I didn’t want to be

heard.
