"I...I..uh..am straight " came out my stutter. Gee Es can you be more embarrassing,I scolded mentally.


"Oh yeah,then why does your heart beat so fast around me" Athena whispered in my ear sending shivers straight to my core.

I kept biting my lower lip, holding my breath,wishing the ground could open up and swallow me whole.

"This is going to be fun" I heard Athena mutter under her breath as she walked away from me.

Reaching Out To You

My heart hammered in my chest as I neared her parents home. I knew I always wanted to meet her parents in the sense of "hey am Athena your daughter's girlfriend and soon to be fiancee" not the "hey am Athena the girl who just handed your daughter to my crazy ex as hostage" 


But I guess it's too late now,the damage's already been done. Now to face the fire consequences of possibly being strangled to death by one of her moms if not her sister 


In the midst of all this I haven't even contacted my mom. 


Can't have her blaming herself sick. I'll just have to approach this problem differently. 


Alyssa crossed a line when she took Rose but capturing Esty was just drawing a battle line with me. She's engaging in a war that she'll lose horribly. 


"Ma'am we're here"I heard the driver say. 


I got off the taxi,don't ask me why I even took a taxi in the first place,I'm too messed up to drive on my own.
