Excerpt
They look like fireflies. The way the water falls from the sky,
illuminated only by the streetlamps.
I stand in the middle of the road, barefoot and barely breathing,
my arms out, face to the sky.
I don’t know how I got here.
When I climbed out of my window, the sun was just setting and now…
now I’m surrounded by
dark skies and false hope.
I know I should go home.
That I should face my fears and tackle them head-on.
My mind travels the right roads at the right time to get me there, but my heart…
My heart takes me to Connor.
Outside his bedroom window, mud seeps between my toes,
and the frigid air creates
goosebumps along my skin. I raise my fist and tap, tap, tap on the glass.
A moment later, a light turns on. And then nothing.
I tap again, my heart racing.
The blind lifts and Connor appears, his eyes squinting.
It’s clear he’d been asleep, or close to it.
Hair a mess, he’s shirtless,
the obvious beginnings of bruises mar parts of his torso, and I look down,
shame filling every part of me.
I bite down on my lip as he slides the window up. “Jesus Christ, Ava.
What the hell are you doing?”
His warm palms meet my soaking wet elbows,
and then his entire body is cocooning mine,
lifting me off my feet and into his bedroom.
My feet land on his soft carpet, and I look down at the mess I’ve made.
“I’m dirty,” I tell him.
Inside and out.
Dirty, dazed and damaged.
