I'd avoided the radio most of the time because Major ScAlz' music seemed to be constantly seeping into my veins via the airwaves. I hadn't watched TV because I'd been so wrapped up in my homework and online studies; there just hadn't been time. When I heard his low, rich, distinctive timbre as he sang, my heart almost stopped. I instantly turned to look at the screen and stood slowly, completely enthralled by the sight of him. My narrowed eyes were still glued to the television long after their spot had finished.
"Want to talk about it?"
Daryl's head nodded toward the screen, alluding to my connection to Flynn. Everyone had seen him when he'd accompanied me on the day of the funeral. Most knew about the time he'd sat and cuddled with me on the bleachers. And now, Flynn was big news. Even more so in our little town.
