Chapter 14

• Isabella.
• I was distracted. I’d been lying to myself tbat I wasn’t thinking about Noah, tbat I was just restless and that my fingers just itched to type because it’s been too long since I actually did that.
• But as mentioned earlier, tbat was just a blatant lie. The truth was I couldn’t stop thinking about the way he looked at me yesterday like he wanted something and had hated himself for it. Or maybe hated me for pulling it out of him. I didn’t want to tell Sienna about that yet, so I did what I always do when I feel too much. I opened my laptop, made some tea I wouldn’t finish, and sat on the couch like I was about to perform surgery on my soul.
