Trust. It was something both of us had a problem with. But, when I saw you in that evidence locker my heart stopped beating and a feeling churned in my stomach that I hadn't felt since the first time I pulled a trigger. I might not trust you yet but I'm slowly beginning to learn that I can't return to being a ghost.
I couldn't say it to Jessica, but I could say it to you. I would say it to you, I have that courage now.
You're two steps ahead of me.
"Wait for me."
You turn back.
It's not the same, and I'm not sure that the sentiment behind these words towards you are the same as I meant them to be for Jessica but all the same I see the surprise on your face that I would have seen on hers.
"Please." I don't want to be alone.
