I stare at my blank laptop screen, not really in the mood to work. Noah was piaying video games, and Iris was sleeping. It’s been a while since Ava left to drop off Gunner; she should be back by now.

Since her shootout, my worry for her has been constant. I can’t get rid of the fear that engulfs me every time she’s outside. I can’t get over the fear that I’ll lose her to death. I almost did once, and that has left it’s mark on me.

I’ll do anything to make sure she’s safe. Including sending the one that hurt her to a place where she won’t ever be able to hurt Ava again.

Sighing I stand up. The other thing that bothered me was Ava’s revelation today. I don’t understand why and how she believes that Emma is innocent. I realized it too late, but Emma has been after Ava since she noticed that my feelings for Ava had changed.
