sir you are the one reading a note out loud in class
It was November 1, All Saints’ Day—which
Funny its Oct 31 right now
“This is only the start, isn’t it?” “Of what?” “Me. Turning into Alberta. Her . . . and all the other female guardians. They’re all leathery and stuff. Fighting and training and always being outdoors—they aren’t pretty anymore.” I paused. “This . . . this life. It destroys them. Their looks, I mean.” He hesitated for a moment and looked up from my hands. Those warm brown eyes surveyed me, and something tightened in my chest. Damn it. I had to stop feeling this way around him. “It won’t happen to you. You’re too . . .” He groped for the right word, and I mentally substituted all sorts of

Why did I get caught up in so many messes with other guys when I had a perfectly sweet one here who wanted me? Why couldn’t I just return his feelings?

And then, suddenly, he was there, charging down the hallway like Death in a cowboy duster.
“No. If I let myself love you, I won’t throw myself in front of her. I’ll throw myself in front of you.”
