Excerpt~There's a ringing in my ears that I can't shut out. There's a hand on my wrist that doesn't let go. Before exhaustion takes over I look up. Blue eyes is at the end of the bed. He releases my wrist and laces his fingers through mine. I squint as the sedative blurs my vision, begins to decapitate my mind, and then notice the painful look in those blue blue eyes.On top of the pain in the two blue gems there's familiarity.Oh God. Oh God. Oh God.How could I forget him? Him, of all people. The one person in the entire world who holds the key to my heart. The one and only person who has ever really loved me. Then I remind myself that they feed and inject me with so many drugs, that its a miracle I don't forget who I am.I struggle to sound coherent, “Damien?”He mouths something.Six words.Six words that seem too impossible to be true.Six words that bleed hope into my soul.Six words.“You're not crazy. I love you.”
