If I\u2019d said that to any other guy\u2014and I do mean any other guy because I\u2019m richer than all of them\u2014they would have gotten defensive. One thing I used to love about Sawyer, rather, because starting now, I\u2019ve resolved to focus only on his flaws. Sure enough, he smiles. \u201cIt\u2019s an idiom, Wren. You might\u2019ve learned about them \u2026 in English class.\u201d<\/p>\n

I want to shout, You wrote me back! Instead, I dig in my heels. \u201cIt was the hardest I\u2019d ever come.\u201d A cruel smile touches the corners of Sawyer\u2019s lips. \u201cYou probably pretended it was me.\u201d I can\u2019t come up with a cutting enough response. I\u2019m too aware of the heat spreading through me, terrified of the way he\u2019s invaded my inner thoughts. He\u2019s not just tattooed on my skin. He\u2019s deeper. Cells in my blood. Marrow in my bones. So entangled that I can\u2019t remove him without cutting myself up.<\/p>\n

I allow some honesty out. Maybe that\u2019s the only way to excise him. \u201cI wanted more, okay? I thought we were more. That\u2019s why I showed up on New Year\u2019s. You obviously felt differently, so\u2060\u2014\u201d \u201cI never said that,\u201d he interrupts. \u201cRight. You said, \u2018Why?\u2019 when you fucking knew why I was really there. That wasn\u2019t humiliating enough? You need me to spell it out for you seven months later?\u201d I shake my head, then move toward the car door. Sawyer steps left, blocking me. \u201cI\u2019m sorry, Wren,\u201d he says quietly.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t need an apology from you. I don\u2019t need anything from you. I wanted things from you. I\u2019ve moved on. You can\u2019t decide you want me now because I did.\u201d \u201cYou think that\u2019s why I\u2019m out here?\u201d \u201cI don\u2019t know why you\u2019re out here, Sawyer.\u201d He exhales. \u201cI\u2019m fucked up, Wren. I fuck up. You have no clue what you\u2019re getting into with me, and I have no idea why you\u2019d even want to.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWanted to.\u201d I emphasize the past tense. One corner of his mouth curves up. \u201cYou kissed me back.\u201d \u201cIt was a reflex.\u201d \u201cWhat about stroking my hair?\u201d \u201cI wasn\u2019t stroking.\u201d He hums, not really agreeing or disagreeing, and then his expression turns serious again. Tense too. \u201cI really came out here to check \u2026<\/p>\n

you\u2019re okay?\u201d \u201cOkay?\u201d I echo. \u201cLike, sober?\u201d \u201cYeah, that. And \u2026 the guy upstairs \u2026 he didn\u2019t do anything \u2026\u201d He clears his throat. \u201cNothing, uh, happened that you didn\u2019t want to happen?\u201d The only other time I\u2019ve seen Sawyer so uncomfortable was when he showed up at the Red, White, and Blue party.<\/p>\n
