GHOSTS AND ALMOST PROMISES
{Playlist Suggestion: "Do You Better" by Rohan}
~KADE POV~
"Kade?" I turn from the reception desk, and there she is.
Chelsea stands by the elevator bank, wearing denim shorts and an oversized sweater that swallows her frame. Her hair is pulled into a messy bun, strands escaping around her face.
But it's her eyes that stop me cold. Red-rimmed, swollen. She's been crying for hours.
I close the distance between us in three strides, examining every inch of her for injuries. "What are you doing here? Are you hurt?"
"I'm fine, I just....." She starts to explain, but I pull her into my arms before she can finish.
She fights me at first, hands pushing against my chest. But my grip is strong, and after a few seconds, she collapses into me.
The dam breaks.
