“Lola,” he answered, making her turn back toward him. She caught a glimpse of longing on his perfect face. Her heart lurched in her chest. She felt so bad for him. He seemed so lost. “I wonder why she did that?” he asked suddenly, confusion marring his perfect features.
“Who’s Vincent?” she heard herself asking.
“The lead guitarist in my band and my best friend…was my best friend,” he amended and then raked his hand through his hair, blowing out a long slow breath. “Can you believe I still wanted her even after everything that happened?”
Evie nodded her head up and down not knowing what else to do.
“I wanted her so bad I could taste it. I could taste her on my lips every morning when I woke up and every night when I finally fell asleep. I couldn’t stand not being with her.” He leaned his head back, rubbed his hands over his face, and started pacing again. “She’s gone now you know?” he said so low she almost didn’t hear.
“Did she move or something?” Evie asked.
Shaking his head, he laughed then.
It was bitter, full of defeat and something else, something scary and dark.
“No. I killed her.”
