My heart pounded so loud I was afraid he could hear it...It was like his calming presence wrapped its arms around my body, cradling me until I felt like I never had to worry about anything ever again. I craved for more of that feeling and found myself moving closer to him. We were just inches away from touching, the heat from his body a scorching tingle along my skin.

TWIST OF FATE

I couldn’t stop thinking about the fight with Heather and my outburst with Finn. No matter how much I tried to distract myself with watching TV or reading a book, my mind always drifted to the fact that the two most important people in my life were either mad at me or walking on eggshells around me. 


Finn and I had texted a bit since that day. It started out with both of us apologizing, then just led into some normal small talk that we always landed on. But still, I felt the shift in energy between us even through the phone. 


I still hadn’t brought up his comment about wondering where his soulmate was. I knew he’d probably tell me he didn’t mean it, that he just said it to throw off any suspicion of us dating, but I hadn’t made a comment like that in years. And I especially hadn’t even wondered about my soulmate since I’d fallen for him.
