Deathly silence

My heart stopped

“Dillon?” My heart started again, racing so hard I couldn’t catch my breath “Dillon?”

“What is it?” Michael’s eyes were round orry

My face cru happened”

“What happened?”

“Michael, we have to go, we have to go We have to find her I think she was in an accident”

I could still feel the panic I’d felt when I realized Dillon was in a car crash As I sat in Michael’s apartaze on my face, that memory bled into another and then another …

Being around Dillon al Guilt made me put up with it My sister laid in her hospital bed, where she’d been in and out for eight weeks now, and stared balefully at the ceiling

“I could bring so different to read?” I waved the historical romance paperback in the air that she’d described as unrealistic smut “What do you want me to read?”

Her jaw clenched “Soirl whose sister betrays her and causes her to get into an accident that leaves her a fuckin’ paraplegic?”

Hearing the bitterness, the hate, in my sister’s voice hurt but I held stoic Dillon’s life had been irrevocably changed by the car accident two ic, but she had suffered severe dae to her spinal cord, and it would take ain She’d never have the strength she had before Not to mention she’d suffered a couple of broken ribs, a fractured collarbone, and a pretty severe concussion

I hated that I was the reason she wasn’t paying attention to the road, but it wasn’ton her phone at the same time I didn’t

I did feel guilty about Michael

I bla sure if this had happened without her learning about Michael and me, her attitude would have been way better
