Chapter 40

I slept sadly again last night. All I could think about was Eros, and how much I had missed him.

I miss him so much that my heart twists painfully at the thought of him. It’s even worse than when he left for his Royal duties.

It’s worse because I see him at school, and I’m not with him. It’s pure torture.

I blame him as the reason I woke up late this morning. I refused a lift from Nova because I still want to be alone.

I forced a smile at him “Hi Tom,”

“Uhm, can I sit with you?” he asked sheepishly.:

Could it be because that he had been watching me, and probably felt he had a chance, that was why he came back?

“Sure,” I nodded.
