"You left, Megan!"
Tears threatened to spill over my eyes. I was so damn tired of having it thrown in my face.
So I laughed. "Yeah, Layton and why do you think that is?"
He threw his hands up. "I don't know Megan! Why don't you tell me? Tell me, why I came looking for you, after my best friend died, only to find out you left me without saying anything."
I saw the honesty in his eyes, the hurt in his face, and my heart started beating faster in my chest.
Why the hell did it look like he honestly didn't know? And why the hell did I believe him?
