By Wednesday afternoon I was pretty overn roaned I had a nagging headache, hadn’t slept well, and for so me

All kinds of questions crowded my brain, and that only made my head ache more Had I moved too fast? Was the kiss that rocked the world too much?

She was a church girl, and not that I knew much about the church she went to, but maybe there were rules Maybe she’d broken them Maybe our kiss should never have happened Maybe it was too early for that kind of stuff Or ured out that I had a lotthe stupid constitution

And now nothing
