Because I know that voice.

My finally-calmed-down stomach suddenly starts bouncing like it’s in some nineties mosh pit. Voices swirl around me, but I’m in a foggy haze of a nightmare and I can’t make out any actual words.

When I work up the courage to turn around, something like terror floods my veins; somehow I know my absolute worst fears are about to materialize.

Because there he is. Right in the doorway. Of the conference room of my office. A halo of golden light from the hallway surrounds him like he’s freaking Captain America.

As if in slow motion, I push myself out of my chair. If only this were a scene in a movie, my hair flowing behind me as I gracefully turn. No longer dressed in leggings and an old shirt without a stitch of makeup on my face, I’m glamorous and gorgeous and completely poised and backed by a wind machine—as one should be when confronted with their ex for the first time in years.

Seth Carson.

The one who got away. Twice.

The movie in my head abruptly cuts to black as the real me stands, stumbles, and falls to my knees. “What the fuck are you doing here?” I manage to choke out before a trash can lands in front of my face. Just in time, as seconds later, I’m heaving up the entire contents of my stomach.
