never knew possible. I detested him. I loathed him. I despised him. I could never erase the horrific picture of him and that skank together the day of Evie’s funeral. I wasn’t sure I could ever forgive him; I wasn’t sure I wanted to.
    Despite all of that, I still loved him. The connection between us could never be severed… not by any thing or any one . No matter what he did… what he said… who he was with… none of it really mattered ~I would always love him. And for that, I hated myself even more than I hated him.
    “Go away,” I replied sternly, keeping my stare forward. Mason turned back around and his eyes were locked on us as he sang the last verse of the song, his voice never wavered.
    “ Maybe you want her, maybe you need her,
Maybe you had her, maybe you lost her to another, to another”
    Never in the history of the universe had there been a more appropriate time or setting for lyrics of a song. It was as if Mason had known Ash would be there at that exact moment. Seeing the determination in his eyes and hearing the passion in his voice reminded me of why I had come back… why I wanted to try and make things work with him.
    When the song ended, Ash ducked his head down to my ear again, “Please come outside so we can talk.”
    I couldn’t hold back any longer. I spun around and jumped off the bar stool so I could look him in the eye. “Leave. Please just leave. I have nothing to say to you.” I tried to keep my voice as calm as possible, but it undeniably shook with anger. Why did he have to keep doing this?
    “Well I have a lot to say to you, Scarlett.” His cloudy blue eyes captured me instantly, as they always did. “At least give me the opportunity to say my part. If you never want to talk to me again afterwards, I will respect that and stay away. But I at least deserve a chance to explain… after everything between us…”
    “’After everything between us’ is exactly why you don’t deserve a chance to explain!” I shouted. Luckily the music had restarted so my outburst was somewhat muffled . Most of the people around us had refocused their attention back to the band.
    “I think it’s best if you just go man,” Max appeared on my left side in an attempt to rescue me from the uncomfortable situation. There was an underlying warning in his tone and he stood up tall and defensive, looking at Ash deadpan.
    Seconds later, Mina had flanked me on the right and her fierce glare was fixed on Ash as well. “I think you’ve done enough. She doesn’t want to talk to you,” she added in a bitchy voice I didn’t know she had.
    Unfazed by their words or presence, he kept his eyes on mine, torturing my will power without saying a word. We stood still for at least a minute, all four of us silently staring. I could not allow him to break me; I would not allow him to break me. Not again.
    Just as I was about tell him to fuck off, he spoke. “At least allow me a proper goodbye to the girl that will own my heart forever. You aren’t so cruel to deny me that, are you?” Well s hit.
    “You’ve got five minutes.”

    I spun around to face Mason, who was doing his best to monitor the situation while putting on a show. I got his attention and held up my hand indicating that I would be back in five minutes. He rolled his eyes and walked over to a group of girls standing by the stage and started singing down at them. I was hoping for a little more mature reaction, but really, what did I expect? I could only imagine what he was thinking.
    I followed Ash through the bar area towards the door, weaving in and out of people and tables. At one point he stopped to wait for me, reaching his hand towards mine. I looked at him and vigorously shook my head . I didn’t want him to touch me; I knew all too well how that that affected me.
    After making it outside, I followed him several more yards until we were on the side of the building. I preferred this location to our last “talk” that occurred in the
