When Jaylinn has a nightmare it scares the hell out of me I asked one time what she does when I’ht until she’s exhausted and can barely function, and then passes out and sleeps straight through I wonder if she just told me that for ine what she did I wonder how herwith Jaylinn and her mom have always and will forever be close It’s the kind of relationship that every parent should have with their kid I wonder if Jaylinn will find the strength to talk to her mom, I think she needs to and I’ve told her that tiain

Mason waves a hand in front of my face I pull my headphones out of my ears and slow the treadmill down "What’s up?"

He lifts his head in the direction of the door; I turn yyreen eyes, Layla, follows behind her and they are laughing at sorab for my towel to wipe the sweat away

"Who is that?" Mason asks

I shrug a shoulder, "Layla, she’s on Jaylinn’s teaain, kind of pissed but appearing like I don’t really give a shit "No clue" I stop the treadrab et the hell out of here, I was planning on doing a full workout but now that she’s here I’ve got to go It hurts to see her, especially laughing and s uy that ith them kisses the top of Layla’s head Thank God because I’m not sure I’d be able to control o over there a beat the shit out of him just because I’m in that kind of mood today

Mason follows behindabout you last night" Mason chuckles "She’s pretty pissed off at you" Of course Mason would find that funny Stupid fker "She said that she’s only seen you at the hospital and that’s it"

I feel like a dick because I’ve been avoiding everyone, not wanting to deal hat’s going on, and I sure as hell didn’t want to deal with my hormonal sister MacKenzie has called and left at least two crying voice how much she misses me She should be too busy with her faured I’d be on her shit list" I sigh, knohat I need to do "I’ll stop by on my way home"

Mason pats me on my shoulder, "Good luck with that"

"Thanks assle" I mutter under my breath

I pull up in the driveway behind Hunter’s truck and take a second to collectto say tome about Jaylinn This is where I wish for that ches, well thenOr at least not feel this pain

Not knohat to do, I restwheel, I’ on thestartlesoutsidepissed I pull the keys out of the ignition and open the door

"What the hell is wrong with you?" MacKenzie asks the second the door is open

"Hey Kenz, Imy eyes

I tuck my hands in my pockets and rock back and forth on ht for the kill "I know and I’et the club up and running before I leave for training" It’s not all a lie It’sit She doesn’t need to know the truth "I barely have tihts"

She doesn’t buyht with Jaylinn"
