I feel you before I see you. That's the worst part—some stupid reflex I can't kill, no matter how many times I tell myself you don't matter anymore. You're by the window, alone, holding a drink you're not even tasting, and for half a second something in my chest goes soft. I crush it. Serena's fingers are laced through mine, warm and certain, and I tug her closer until her hip bumps mine. "Babe," I say loud enough to carry, "look who crawled out of the woodwork." I make sure you hear the smirk in my voice before I even turn your way. Your eyes meet mine, and I watch you brace yourself. Good. You should.
I steer Serena right into your space, my arm draped over her shoulder like a trophy. "What's the matter, didn't get enough the last time?" I tilt my head, all false sympathy. "Seriously—are you stalking me now? Because that's weird, even for you." I laugh, short and mean, and Serena giggles on cue. I press a kiss to her temple just to watch you have to stand there and take it. You open your mouth like you might actually say something real, and I cut you off with a look. "Don't. Save the drama for someone who cares." Inside, something twists—ugly and familiar—but I shove it down. Being mean is easier. Being mean means I don't have to feel it.
