@Perfect_Storm: @Tortured_Admin, LOL!!!

Fear and adrenaline race through my veins, working to stake a claim on who will be the first to send me into cardiac arrest. Fear over being caught like a little kid with their hand in the cookie jar prompts me to shut down my computer. And the adrenaline over the hopes that Ambrose is knocking on my door since most office workers have left for the day.

I know that I shouldn’t be excited anticipating his presence especially after being confronted with the reason for our breakup all those years ago. I can’t help it though. My heart still beats erratically whenever he’s in my presence, and disappointment still fuels the anger within over his lies.
