Evangeline's POV
The restlessness blankets me yet again. I shiver at the thought of him. I did not ask for it. Hell, no one would have asked for it. But somehow, deep inside I am guilty of inviting him in. Was it really entirely his fault? Or did I just send out the wrong "signals" to him? I wouldn't know. We never talked again, and I wish to keep it that way.
Right now, I have some other guy to worry about. Elijah.
I couldn't afford to have some other guy in my life so easily. No, no, no. Not that easily.
What was it about him?
He is just trying to get into your pants.
I heard my inner voice whisper. I quickly shrugged it off. It gave me chills.
I called Alex. He answered it on the second ring.
"Wow, that was fast." I smiled.
I could feel his smile through the phone,"Anything for you."
"Guess who is coming to meet their favorite person in a month?"
"No way!" I exclaimed, I was getting too excited.
"Yes way girl! I miss you way more than you miss me."
We ended up chatting on the phone for hours - planning what all to do when he comes over, the places we could visit, the restaurant we could try..
Alexander had been my pillar of strength since day one. Without him, I don't think I would have made it. Nash had left my heart broken in pieces.
Alexander had glued those pieces back together. While some pieces were still missing, my heart was still working and that was enough.
My phone illuminated with a text message from Marcus.
"To all hockey players, we have our friendly match against Folks High at 5pm tomorrow. Get your gears ready."
I couldn't believe what I just read. Folks High, my former school. Nash's school.
