Cedrick:

I crossed a line didnt I

And for some reason, that makes my heart clench.

I hurry to text back.

Me:

No, no. I just… don’t know what to say to that.

Cedrick:

Because I freaked you out

I knew I shouldnt have said that

Me:

You didn’t freak me out.

I’m just… processing.

Cedrick:

Can you process a little faster

I bark out a laugh, and in my mind’s eye, I can just picture that leery smile twisting Static’s face. It makes me shiver.

Cedrick:

You look beautiful right now

I flush from head to toe as I read those words over and over. I hunch over on the bed, hiding my face from view.

Me:

I should find that camera and take it out.

Cedrick:

Why when you love that its there

Shit… Do I?

I think I do…

I swallow thickly, heart starting to race all over again.

Me:

You can see me, but I can’t see you.

How’s that fair?

Cedrick:

Do you want to see me?
