Noah was everything to me.
When we were together, the world faded away.
He made me remember the girl I used to be.
Being with him, helped me find myself.
But, our love was like a war?—
Each side fighting for survival.
I still crave his touch.
He still wants my body.
But Noah’s out for revenge.
I’m tired of fighting.
I don’t have a battle plan.
I’m just stuck in the crossfire with no way out…

Rory
“Hello?”A man’s voice comes across the line and I wince, looking around me.It’s loud, and I can’t afford to attract attention.
“Is this…,” I clear my throat as fear almost keeps the words in.“Is this the man they call Crusher?”
“Yeah,” he says, sounding alert now, whereas before his voice seemed thick with sleep.“Who’s this?”
I swallow.I’ve gone around and around this conversation in my head.I didn’t know how to tell him, and I don’t want him to doubt that what I’m telling him is the truth.It’s definitely irony, but to get this Crusher person to believe me… I’m going to lie my ass off.
“My name is Rory McDaniels,” I tell him, giving him one of the very few truths I can give him.
“What do you want?”he asks.
“Cowboy?Are you okay?”I hear a woman ask in the background.
“I’m fine, Hellcat, go back to bed,” he says, his voice muffled, like he put a hand over the receiver.
“Are you there?”I ask him, looking around in the dark.Something about the way he spoke to the woman reassures me that this was the right man to call.
“How did you get my number?”he growls.
“From a friend,” I tell him… not exactly a lie.
“Lady you need to start talking a hell of a lot more than you are, or I’m hanging up,” Crusher says.
