Everyone drew closer to him, like he was a magnet and they were metal. 

β€œLight follows him. It’s always sunny when he’s around.”

It felt like someone had slipped glasses on my face. And that someone had given me permission to see.

Then I held on to her. There wasn’t much else to say, not until I could puzzle it all out in my head, so I just held on to her. Tight enough that maybe the next time she thought about going it alone, she’d remember there was no need.

🏞️ Sixth & final in a series following the Edens; you need to read book 5 for the overarching storyline to make sense
