she had waltzed into that club , meticulously chosen among others – looking for trouble . and trouble she had found . what she did not account for was how much ‘trouble’ would affect her life afterwards . tall , dark and handsome with a touch danger – everything a mother would have warned their daughter about . mckenna’s mother had not warned her about anything or anyone . instead her parents were responsible for blowing up the bridge connecting her to her emotions . feelings make you weak ! friendship and love make you vulnerable . leaving her heart stone cold . the last thing she expected was for him to be the one to start playing the strings of her frozen heart . it scares her and she has not been scared since the day she stumbled into her father’s life - holding a glock to the head of a man twice her size, her heart stuck in her throat . but for some reason it pales in comparison to this . when they laughed at her , asking if she had a death wish while multiple rifles were pointed at her . definitely less scary than james telling her to stop hiding . stop burying the butterflies erupting in the pit of her stomach every time he as much as glances at her . everything she should have felt whenever she touched someone – and did not feel , she felt with him . the tingling sensation he left her with was overwhelming . chocolate hues looking everywhere but him , her arms wrapped around herself instead of him - where she wanted them to be . keeping her distance even if it physically hurt her , it did not feel right nor would it ever feel right to be without him --- it frightened her . to depend on someone the way she had slowly began to depend on him .
❝ i’m sorr … ❞ words die on her tongue , dark orbs screwed shut . ❝ i don’t know how to --- feel . ❞ she hopelessly breathes . ❝ i’ve been numb for so long … ❞ it is a mere mumble , mostly to herself . how is she supposed to show him anything when she is this broken – maybe even beyond repair ?
