BLAZE
I can’t f*****g think.
The cold night air doesn’t do s**t to numb the fire that’s burning through me. The taste of him is still there, lingering, haunting. Ashton. That goddamn kiss.
Fuck him. f**k him for crossing the line like that. We’ve been through s**t together, been brothers in this f****d-up world for years, and now he’s gone and kissed me. Kissed me like I was something he could have. Like I was his.
I don’t know how to feel about it. Hell, I don’t even want to know. But the way it’s eating at me? The way his lips felt against mine? Goddamn, it’s f*****g wrecked me.
I drag the cigarette between my fingers, but it’s useless. I flick it away, desperate to drown out the noise in my head. It wasn’t supposed to happen. It wasn’t.
But it did.
And now everything’s broken.
