Sutton

Spencer, where the hell are you?

House is empty

Twenty-four hours without a response

I know you haven’t been in town long enough to find some chick to shack up with

Swear to god if you took off and break Mom’s heart again, I’m going to kill you

Silas

Strong words coming from an officer of the law

Sutton

Do you know where he is?

Silas

Hell no. But maybe give him a chance to respond. It’s fucking six a.m.

Sutton

That’s what he gets for pulling this disappearing shit

AGAIN!!

Silas

And me? What the hell did I do to deserve this atrocious wake-up call?

Sutton

You were born last

Silas

Some of us need our beauty rest

Maybe if you owned a mirror…

Sutton

What’s that supposed to mean?

Me

He’s calling you ugly, Sutt

The cornerof my lip curls in a semblance of a grin. Silas is right. It’s far too early for this shit, and I didn’t sleep much.

Every time my eyes would close,she’dappear in my dreams, and I’d jolt awake.

I can’t get her hauntingly beautiful face out of my head. Add in those tear-streaked cheeks and watery eyes, and my sleep was fucked.
