Chapter 65

Conrad's POV

I look at both of them, not really knowing what to say. On one hand, I want to yell at them until I'm tired, tell them to go to hell.

On the other hand, I want to understand them and convince myself that there are people like that, who believe that if the person they like isn't with them, they can't be with anyone else. There's a part of me that wants to understand them with all my being, and I understand. Maybe it's that part that grew fond of them, that loved the fun-loving Harper who spoke her mind, that enjoyed the moments with Logan, the group jokes, and the trust I thought we had.

"That part of me should be killed because they didn't think about Gwen or me. They didn't consider how their decision would affect our present or our future. They didn't have the decency to think about the consequences that a photo like that would generate. I shut down that part of me that wants to forgive them and let them go on with their lives, and I focus."
