"Did Connor ask you yo come patch things up for him ? He got you to do his dirty work?"
She glares. "I'm not Connor's bitch," she snaps. "I do what I want to do. You want to know the truth ? He told me to stay out of his relationship with you because he's afraid I'll do more harm than good. He's so scared to lose you, and you can't see it because Connor won't let you."
I process everything she says. "Why is that?"
" He enjoys acting like he's invicible. It's infuriating, but we all have our faults, even him."
I put him on a pedestal above everyone, above my own brother. I thought there was no fucking way Connor Cobalt would hurt me. He was designed to be there for all of us. He made me feel worthy of love even if he never truly loved me.
"Our whole friendship feels like a lie," I tell her.
"It's not," she says. "I've known him since I was fourteen, Loren. I've seen his superficial friendships and the ones he creates to further himself in life. You're not one of those. He's more himself with you than he usually his. You have to believe that."
