This was all fucking falling apart.
Lucas was suspicious of me and with good reason. I had lied to him over and over and the hole that I had been digging for myself was now so deep that it would take a miracle to get me out unscathed. But I couldn’t tell him the truth yet, though I knew that I had to and that he was owed.
Our fight and his leaving me alone for the night just made things worse. When he walked out the door, I quickly walked over to it, wanting to open it to beg him to come back. But once I reached the door, all I could do was collapse against it and cry.
