Chapter 25 (Evangeline)

When I get off the phone, Maggie looks at me.

“Are you really going to do this?” she asks.

“He’s not giving me any other choice.” I walk to her, taking her hands in mine. “Will you do me a favor?”

“Of course, anything Evie.”

“Don’t say anything to them on the way home.”

“Mom’s going to freak out when she realizes.”

I shrug, walking into the bathroom and stripping off my clothes. I set Jaxon’s jacket aside, knowing I may not see him now until the next competition. I hope I will, but we’ll have to see what happens.

I shower and get ready, packing my things and heading downstairs. Most everyone will be staying for breakfast, but my father is rushing us out of here.

“Why are we leaving so early?” Makayla complains, stomping down the stairs with her bags over her shoulder.

I don’t say anything. I can’t. I’m so angry, so hurt, that if I say a word, the tears will start to fall. How could the best night of my life turn into the worst morning so quickly?

My dad pulls the car around and we all begin to load our bags and get in. Alejandro frowns at me and I just shake my head at him.

“Eve!” I hear behind me. I turn and see Jaxon jogging toward me, a huge smile on his face.

As soon as he sees mine, the smile drops. “Eve?”

I shake my head at him before climbing into the car, the tears a moment from falling.

My father hits the gas as soon as my door is shut.

“Eve!” Jaxon says, running toward the car. I put my hand up against the window, my own way of saying goodbye as I watch him chase the car before he stops and watches us drive away.

When I turn back the car is eerily silent.
