Chapter 80: ~°~Chapter Eighty~°~

I spend most of the next hour filling Yanis in on what had happened ever since he left and he quietly listens, looking genuinely interested. It's always so easy talking to him so its no surprise I end up spilling all about Virgil and Dale.

He grinds his jaw when my narration gets to Nicole and Julia, I had left out the bit about what happened at the Spring Dance for two reasons, one I didn't want to talk about it and two I didn't want that as a label.

I'd made up my mind that none of it was my fault and I wouldn't let it control my life or how people viewed me.

"Who is this Dale guy and I'm going to punch Virgil when I see him."

"No, don't." I say quickly.

"Don't worry, Minou, I'm not doing it for you, I'm doing it for myself." He mutters darkly, a slight trace of his French accent coming through, it only did when he got angry.
