they should come with us on tour.”
I throw the idea out there hoping Talon
will take my lead.
“We have classes and we can’t
just pack up and leave.” Eaven needs to
get on board here. She is so dependable
and I need her to be a free spirit right
now.
“Drop the classes and enroll in
online classes. You can’t stay here by
yourselves.” I’m quick on my feet with a
solution.
“Either do that or I’m canceling
the tour because I won’t be able to
concentrate if I’m worrying about you
the entire time.” Talon knows how to
get to Eaven. He walks right up to her
and pulls her close, face to face. Shit if
they were any closer, he would be inside
of her. “It will be fun. We can see all of
the different locations’ together and I
won’t complain about spending every
night with you.” Talon is good at getting
what he wants.
That is usually me. I feel like if I
try too hard, I will scare her off since
she pulled the friend card this morning.
If I don’t try at all she won’t think I want
her to come. She wants to be friends, so
I will go with that for now. I know if
she goes on tour with me, I will get her
to cave again. Right now she needs a
friend anyway. She has a lot to deal
with, and I’m not that big of an asshole.
“Yea it’ll be fun, Ivy. We can go
and humiliate these two the whole time.
We can moan back at them when they
have sex, and bang on the walls when Ev
is about to finish him off.”
She finally smiles. It’s a small
one, but it’s a smile. I have my work cut
out for me. I want my feisty girl back. I
could kill Dylan for taking her away
from
me. Maybe they will find him
while we are gone and he will rot in hell
for the rest of his worthless life.
“Maybe it would be good to get
away from here, Ivy. We could see the
things we would have missed out on.
We could SHOP!”
It’s a done deal now that I have
Eaven up for the idea.
“You know I’m always up for
anything, but I need to talk to Taron
first.”
“Yea, yea. He is going to be a
perfect gentleman and all of that. We are
going and we will live it up the entire
time! Ivy, think of the pictures we can
take!”
The police take our statement and
we end up back at the police station to
give more details. I’m outraged that Ivy
has to relive this scene over and over.
They make her verify that each of the
photos were hers. They let me stay with
her as she begins the humiliating display
of proof that he is as psycho as I felt he
was when I entered his apartment. The
police tell us that he has been in the
apartment next to Ivy’s for the last
couple of weeks. They bring in the
evidence and begin to show Ivy items
that belong to her.
I watch Ivy deplete with every
photo. I watch as the last little bit of
strength in my girl flows out in the tears
running down her face. I silently vow to
her that I will take care of her as my lips
press to her temple in my attempt to
remind her that she isn’t alone.
The police finally finish with the
evidence and we make our way out of
the hell around us. I stop her once we
get to the truck. She hasn’t lifted her
head since I came back for her. I wrap
my arms around her and she doesn’t push
me away. Her body has no fight left and
she completely leans on me to hold her
upright.
“Let me in, Ivy. I will be here for
you.” I talk into her hair as I lean down
t o completely surround her. I wish I
could pull some of the hurt from her.
She slowly wraps her arms around
my waist and I feel her squeeze just
slightly. This is enough communication
for me to know she is still in there. I
still have a chance to build this girl up
and help her survive this nightmare.
I hold her until she pulls away
from me. She climbs into my truck and
slides all the way over to the door on the
other side. I know she is using it to help
hold her up and I wish she would let me
hold her. I drive us back to my house
and allow her
