How had it only been 3 hours since she left? It felt like I'd been lying in my bed for days, waiting for her return. I don't know how I'm going to make it through an entire week without her, which is crazy because before her, I used to be quite good at being alone, in fact, I actually preferred it, but now all I want is to be with Claire.
The numbers on my alarm clock were dragging forward at a snail's pace, and I couldn't help but picture her being taken further from my reach with each passing second. Was she thinking about me, too? Missing me as much as I was her? I didn't want to ask her because that would seem like I'm being needy and pathetic, as if I can't function without her, which I can't, but she doesn't need to know that.
What I needed was a reason for contacting her,
