Chapitre 38: Chapter 38

Austin

Watching Candice strut around my house, worried that she might come across some picture of me and a woman was amusing. I know that's what she was doing. At first, I was just going to let her believe I was with someone, see how long until it drove her crazy, but something inside of me wanted her to know immediately that I'm single. I have to admit she's been on my mind nonstop since I realized she was the woman that we found unconscious outside the compound.

I take off on my bike headed to the old community center. When Abby first told me that Chance was there I knew what was in his head. I just needed to be alone before I could take off to see him. I had texted him earlier and told him to stay put. I didn't get a text back, but I knew he would be there. We have never had a shooting at the compound, and after it happened I was so focused on Max's turmoil, Chance's never even came to mind.
