A Stranger Visits

Why didn’t I think of checking my phone before this?

I cursed softly under my breath when I laid eyes on my phone screen. It felt like I was facing war on multiple fronts, and it was driving me insane with anxiousness and worry. While being swept up by Jeremy’s unexpected confession and then the heated argument that I had with him, I hadn’t paid any attention to my phone. Although I knew that it wasn’t right to have my priorities backwards, I had to admit that I was too distracted by what was going on that I momentarily forgot about Ace and the fact that I had been waiting for him to contact me.

“Shit…” I whispered before grinding my teeth together.
