Excerpt
Things with Theo were always complicated yet simple. Difficult yet as easy as breathing. Our relationship now is no less complex, but I know I need to fix things with him. It’s no different from Galen in that regard. I can’t cause a divide in the group with me, Caz, and Saint on one side and Galen and Theo being frozen out on the other side. But even if I do patch things up with them, I still don’t see how it ends up working out. There are too many barriers to unity, especially with Theo. I remove my hand from Caz’s. “Hey, could you give us a minute?” I gesture toward Theo. “Sure.” He kisses my lips. “I’ll grab us a table.” Theo lifts his head, his eyes finding mine, and I hate the anguish I discover there, because I know I’m partly responsible for it. I step toward him. “Hey.” I peer into his beautiful hazel eyes. Green is most prominent today, but his pupils are ringed in a layer of brown and amber, and I could stare at his handsome face all day. Tentatively, I reach out, cupping one side of his face. “You doing okay?” He shrugs, looking away, and I tilt his face around with my fingers. “Don’t do that. Please.” “It hurts so much to look at you sometimes,” he admits, his voice cracking a bit. “I know.” I press my forehead to his, and my heart beats wildly out of control. “I’m sorry if I hurt you with Caz in the car.” “It’s not that,” he says. “I just miss you, Lo. Miss the way we were.” His hands land on my hips. “I miss you so fucking much,” I whisper. Tears sting my eyes, and I’m horrified. I pull back, because I can’t break down here. “Can we go to the park tonight? Just you and me. Like old times?” His eyes turn glassy, and a soft smile graces his lips. “I would like that. We are long overdue a talk.” I nod. “You hurt me, Theo, and I’m not sure I’m ready yet, but I want to try.” “I want to try too, because I want to fix things with us.” “Do you think we can?” He shrugs. “I don’t know. I think I’m even more confused than I was back then.” “Because of me or someone else?” I gently inquire. His eyes pop wide. “Is it—” I shake my head. “I don’t think it’s obvious.” The door opens, and Caz pops his head out. “You guys coming or what?” “Always so impatient.” Theo punches him in the arm, but he’s smiling. “We’re coming.” He reaches back, and I take his hand, letting him lead me inside.About Siobhan USA Today bestselling author Siobhan Davis writes emotionally intense young adult and new adult romantic fiction with swoon-worthy romance, complex characters, and tons of unexpected plot twists and turns that will have you flipping the pages beyond bedtime!
