“I’ well,” I said abruptly

“It’s just that ti a little dizzy and very tired and bloated all of a sudden”

“Well, let’s go get you so then I think there’s a twenty-four—”

“Ava, wait!”

Slipping frorasp before he could wrap his hand aroundout my name while Hunter tried to talk hian’s best friend talking some sense into him after my best friend had attempted to talk some sense into me

I didn’t knohat to think any longer I didn’t kno to feel All I kneas that I needed out of that bar I needed to get away froan, away froo hoet in my car, drive off, and find some way to clear my head

And I needed to do it alone

After chasing Ava out the front door only to see her squeal past the club, I ripped h the night I sent her textI called her every hour on the hour, hoping I could annoy her into picking up the phone

Fuck How the hell had things gone so fucking sideways? I had no idea what to think Things had been so good Hunter had been nice, like I’d told hiotten to hold her close and kiss those plump lips of hers

Then she went to the bathroom and shit switched on a dime

“This is Ava Leary, project er at—”

I hung up the phone and threw it across the roo in frustration My hands shook My chest heaved I didn’t understand why the fuck she wouldn’t pick up her da, intoxicating I was addicted to the whole of her, and I wanted to knohat the hell had happened last night I loved spending ti up to her And now she was out of reach Again

I wasn’t letting this happen again If things were going to work between us, Ava and I had to learn how to co well last night, but if she had been telling the truth, then soht help her I went into redients into a s her some homemade chicken noodle soup That always helpedwell, especially if I was nauseous I cooked it up and poured it into a small container Then I slipped on some clothes and made my way to the car

If Ava wouldn’t pick up her phone, then maybe she would answer her door

I pulled up to her apartment complex and started inside I’d never been over to her place, but I knehere she lived Camilla had talked about it all the time I’d even picked her up there a time or two after she had spent the weekend with Ava I strode over to the steps and walked myself all the way up to the third floor, then knocked on Ava’s front door

When she answered the door, she looked just fine

“Logan,” she said
