I can’t walk away like it never happened. Like I’ve never tasted her or felt her trembling beneath my hands. Like I haven’t seen her cheeks flush when I whisper something dirty in her ear or the sweet little laugh she does when watching mindless videos on social media. Like she hasn’t taken up a home in my heart and become a part of me. Since we started this… Hallie’s become my best friend. The one I go to about everything. The first person I want to tell when I have a good day or something exciting happens.
