Six o'clock that night and Eve had no energy left. Dealing with Cale had been no fun, and when she got home she collapsed on the couch with a sigh.

Suddenly, Eve got a text from Adlyn.

Adlyn: Promise me something
6:02

Eve: What am I promising?
6:03

Adlyn: Promise me you won't get that close to death again. Please. You mean everything to me. Please.
6:05

Eve: Adlyn?
6:06

Adlyn: Yeah?
6:07

Eve: Adlyn, sweetheart. I never tried. But what's the worry?
6:08

Adlyn: I dunno. I'm just worried about you and I can't imagine not being this close to you, it'd be hell not to tell you how much you mean to me
6:10

Eve: Why don't you come over sweets?
6:11

Adlyn: I don't know if Isabel will bring me
6:12

Eve: Ask
6:12

Adlyn: She said sure. See you in 5
