Love Me in the Dark
Of all the things she wanted to know about me, why had something to do about frightening my ass?
I could feel the sweat pouring from my head, and I was still shaking. I could feel the iciness seeping through my skin, creeping into my bones, making me shake further. I couldn’t talk without stuttering, so I bit my bottom lip hard.
Her face vanished.
“Krew, are you there?”
“Yeah. I don’t—” The thunder roared again, startling me. “Fuck!” My chest heaved. “I’m so—” Goddamnit. God! My fingers trembled. Everything shook. I dropped the phone down the floor.
