Love Unspoken

Alexander refrained from further debate, choosing instead to drive on in silence, his focus solely on the road ahead.

Getty, her temper flaring, turned her head away, her lips sealed in a tight line. The prospect of another argument, and the weeks of separation that inevitably followed, was something she had no desire to entertain. Quinn, a solitary figure, watched the car disappear into the distance, her gaze unwavering until it was entirely out of sight. A tremor ran through her eyelashes as she finally allowed her eyes to wander elsewhere. So, that was the reason he had erased her from his contacts.

A bitter smile pulled at the corners of her mouth. Turning on her heel, Quinn began to walk, her figure growing smaller as she disappeared into the rain.

His signature smile was in place, his curly hair swept back save for a few loose strands that hung over his forehead. His androgynous charm was undeniable, even under the dim street lights.

Quinn pressed her lips together and chose to ignore him.
