Megan's P.O.V

It had been a week since me and Dylan had talked. He called frequently and I didn't answer the phone. How could I? I wanted to believe Dylan had changed, but he was still a criminal. I walked through the house today feeling especially bad. My head was absolutely killing me.

"Megan! The phone!" My mom yelled, deepening my headache. I held the phone to my ear and shooed her away.

"Hello?"

"You alright?"

I sighed, "I'm not in the mood."

"What's wrong?"

"I don't feel good."

"I'm sorry to hear that. Can we talk?"

"No, I don't want to talk to you."

"Baby please, I'm sorry."

"Is this the only reason you called?"

He sighed, "please, please talk to me."

"I'm talking to you and all I hear is you making more excuses for doing wrong."

"I couldn't lose you Megan, you mean a lot to me and I couldn't imagine losing you."

"So you'll quit drugs and drop out of the gang?"

"I can try the drugs thing, but I'll get killed before I can get out."

I paused for a moment.

"Can you pick me up tonight?" I asked.

"Of course, I love you."

I waited before responding. I did love this man, more than I was willing to admit, but I really did love him.

"I love you too. Bye."

"Bye."

The line went dead and I hung the phone back on the wall. I walked through the living room and upstairs to go back to bed. I still had an awful headache and my meeting with Dylan might bring a new one.
