“I missed you too.” Maven blinks, and I swear her eyes sparkle. “That’s why you came here? To tell me you missed me?” “Among other things.” “Like?” “Like that I can’t get you out of my head,” I say, and my words crack around the edges. “I think about you, every second of every day. I’ve tried really fucking hard not to, but I can’t stop, and I’m done pretending like I can. I’m weak, Maven, and you’ve ruined me. I never stood a chance when it came to you.”
