“Knock” “Knock” “knock” I knock on her door and hope that she is awake, because today I am starting over with her or at least going to try anyway.

“Knock” “Knock” As I sit on the couch reading, I hear a knock at the door which startles me a little. Enough to make me drop my book. “Dang it.” I murmur under my breath when I must find my bookmark and try to remember which page I was on.

“Stone hard, machine gun Firing at the ones who run Stone hard, as bulletproof glass” And for my old friends. That even if they deceived me, I would never fall. I will never kneel before them.

Don’t let him, and don’t retaliate. I nod and continue walking. I will not be drawn into any more bullshit with Lorcan. He pretty much threatened me, but I won’t show fear. Lorcan can go fuck himself! I’m looking where I’m going, and I bump into a small frame, knocking them down. “Oh, I am so sorry!” I crouch down and notice the person I knocked down is Jenna.
