Leaning against a tree.
Staring right at me.
He’s always watching me.
“Holy fuck,” I whisper under my breath.
They’re perfect.
Cullen and Archer are perfect.
What they give to me.
Cullen gives me my voice and sound.
Archer gives me protection.
I try to play it off that I don’t see Archer.
But he keeps staring at me.
So I finally look at him.
I miss you.
I almost yell that to him.
What stops me?
My phone vibrates.
I look and see that my economics stuff has been graded.
“Fucking perfect,” I whisper.
I look up and Archer is now gone.
Before I have a chance to think, Seth jumps out of nowhere, smiling ear to ear.
“Seth,” I say.
“Jaci,” he says.
He moves right toward me.
“I got a perfect grade on my project,” I whisper.
“Of course you did,” he says. “You’re smart. And you have me.”
“Yeah…”
“Speaking of having me,” Seth whispers. “I’m here to collect.”
“Oh yeah?” I ask.
Seth touches my face.“I finally get to fuck you again, Jaci.”
