(Karsten)
It felt like an eternity since I had felt any semblance of peace. I guess hurting an innocent heart came with dire consequences and I deserved every ounce of pain that had been slashing my heart.
Coffee and cigarettes had become my best friends, and I was smoking more than I should have, but it was impossible to forget her when she was right there.
I should have let her go, but deep down, I was a selfish prick.
Besides, I knew she wouldn't leave until she had figured out who had been stalking her. She cared too deeply for her family to put them in any kind of danger. That was her weakness and I just hoped her stalker wouldn't use it against her.
I, on the other hand, like an asshole, as she now loved to call me, was going to use her weakness to my advantage.
Right now she was in a full mood to vex me, throwing open her seatbelt and challenging me. She should have known, I never backed down from a challenge.
