RAVEN

I had just entered Taylor’s bedroom , the creams and browns of the décor and walls made the room look warm and welcoming . I saw him laying on his bed staring at the ceiling .

” Hey . We missed you at training . ” I said softly , walking over to his bed . He sat up slowly and I hugged him tightly . ” I’m not feeling up to training . ” He muttered , laying down again and grabbing a square cushion , hugging it to his chest as he sighed deeply . ” I know , but you can’t stay cooped up .

” I said , stroking his hand . Our eyes met , and the pain in his tugged at my heart .

” I’m sorry . ” I whispered . He gave me a pointed look . ” Really Raven , you need to stop with the self – blaming . I’m glad I know what a … jerk Zack’s been . As for Anna , I don’t know what the hell to do .

” He groaned in frustration . So that was his dilemma , but right now I didn’t trust myself to give him any advice . ” I don’t even know what to do with my life , so I really can’t advise you . ” I said with a gloomy pout . ” ” Will you talk to Zack ? ” ” Sooner or later . ” He muttered , turning o n his side and hugging the cushion tightly . get update on m.techkaushal.com

” Good , life’s short . ” I murmured , thinking with each passing day , Liam’s time was running out . ” Yeah . I know I’ll forgive him sooner or later , he did that when he was a stupid eighteen – year – old , and we both know that crap happens .

” Taylor said . ” Tell me about it , I’ve been a dumb eighteen – year – old , ” I mumbled , tugging a t the hem of my dress . ” But I’m glad you are going to work on it . ” 11 ” Yeah … When I’m ready , right now …. I’m pissed . ” Taylor said , sounding adorably cute . those people who Taylor was just one couldn’t stay mad at anyone for long .

” And you should be . ” I said , giving him a small smile . ” What about you ? What’s happening ? I know people at the packhouse are being assholes . ” Taylor said sympathetically . ” So , you’ve heard , huh ? ” I said , making folds in my dress . Taylor reached over and gave my arm a squeeze . ” Hey … I’m here if you want to talk about i t .

I don’t know why you aren’t telling people , but he’s your mate , isn’t he ? ” I gave him a small smile . How do I tell him I didn’t know what to do ? How the fact that I have two mates was hard ? {get update on m.techkaushal.com} How do I explain that I didn’t know how to balance this when both my mates were so different , our relationships were so different ?

I just felt like I was lost in the middle of conflict with everyone giving m e different advice . I felt guilty for favouring Liam . How I forgot Damon when I was with Liam . Yet when I was with Damon , I felt guilty towards Liam .

Then there was Damon telling me to make it work with Liam first , then Aunty Red saying to be equal or decide what I wanted . Not to mention Al’s ultimatum that this would not work and I would have to pick one .

” Well , I’m going to go face the music . ” I said , giving him a wave . He followed me out of his room and down the steps , I could see his mum was mixing something in the kitchen through the open archway . ” Bye Mama Dee ! ” ” Bye ,
