~Everly~
It always comes out of nowhere. One minute, I'm sleeping—the next, I'm awoken by agonizing pain. I feel my heart pumping in my chest erratically and my stomach cramping terribly. I clutch at it and bite down on my lip to stop from screaming. I don’t want to wake Zoe; I know I keep her up at night, and she always hovers worriedly. Usually, it isn't too bad, but tonight it's the worst it's been in two months.
I know he's sleeping with someone. I can tell by the pain ratio. Usually, it's just like an upset tummy, but tonight I feel like my heart is being pulverized and my stomach twisted in knots. I cry out in pain. I can’t help it. I toss and turn until the lights flick on. Zoe isn’t going to keep believing it's just period pain. Not after tonight.
"Everly! Everly!" she shrieks,
