My Bossy Secretary
The next thing I knew, I was raising my hand, grabbing the front of my sweatshirt, and my fist hammering my chest because I could not breathe.
“Shit!” Finn panicked. “Lexi?”
From the solar lights, I saw Finn’s eyes widen, mouth open, aghast at what happened to me, but it was too late. Instead of breathing in relief that it was only him, it was not what I was feeling right now.
As if someone had gripped my lungs so tight, the stabbing pain inside my chest made it difficult for me to breathe. I tried to inhale, filling my lungs with air, but I ended up crying, scared that my breathing, coming in short, and hurting my chest would kill me.
