People always said there was a key to your heart.
I literally held one right now, but it was one key to two people’s hearts. If I went there, we could fix it.
He thought this was worth fighting for. That I was worth it. He’d said his world didn’t matter because I was his world.
He’d consumed mine from day one.

I couldn’t.
I made it as far as the inside of the front gate before I stopped.
What if he was angry with me for ignoring him? What if he didn’t want to see me? Then what was I supposed to do?
I pulled out my phone and opened my text chain with him. The last chat we’d had was him taking the piss out of me cutting my finger—it was now the tiniest little scab, and I was ninety percent sure it was going to scar, but whatever.
