?I want her back.? She sighed, turning her face into the pillow of their ? her ? bed. The man who gave her this space, who withdrew out of courtesy to her, haunted her night and day.
A despairing look when he thought she wasn?t looking.
An inherent need to touch and be touched and the absolute denial of that need by the man so near.
Fits of inward rage so violent she quaked in the corner of the room, knees clutched tight to her chest.
Cold. So much cold.
She was trying so hard to be the Jaycy everyone expected her to be. She acted like her. She spoke like her. She smiled like her. But still, it wasn?t good enough for him, who she could never get away from. And in wanting her, he denied the person who was before him. A woman who was growing on her own and discovering her own likes and needs. A woman who was prisoner to the bond between them.
A woman who was growing to care about what happened to her afterward.
In her waking moments, frustration roiled through her as she tried to pretend she was alright ? content, even ? to play at being Jaycy while they searched for the solution to bring the true Jaycy home to Pslyder.
True Jaycy; a ghostly visage in her nightmares that scolded her endlessly ? she was imperfect, stupid ? a joke. A joke that would be remedied as soon as he had his answer.
The redheaded wraith drained her will every night, stole her breath and taunted her nothingness, reminded her that the man she unwillingly so intimately felt would never feel the same.
She couldn?t escape her fate. She was the intruder and must be cast out when the time was right. She was just coming alive but she was destined to die.
A million dark dreams dotted the surface of her mind like dewdrops in the young spring morning. A million dreams shattered as she woke.
?I don?t want to be her! I want to be me!?
