toserveandprotectShe had some big decisions to make; it could change her whole life. She knew Jason cared for her but the things he’d done, what he’d been willing to do… she couldn’t condone that. Even if it felt good to have that kind of contact in her life, he wasn’t the guy for her. Hell guys weren’t the guy for her.
She had to come to terms with the feelings that had been growing since she started to get close to Goliath. They were friends, but there was so much more to it than that. Especially now, she trusted him with her life maybe it was time she trusted him with her heart as well.
She shoved her hands deep into her pockets as she walked. Long shadows of skyscrapers grew ever longer on the street. The heat of summer still radiating off the pavement made her long for the cool of night. The sun was setting soon and she could talk to the gargoyle then, and they would have a lot to talk about.
She was walking, just walking with her gaze on her shoes and a ghost of a smile on her lips. She’d kissed him this morning, spent the day thinking and wondering what the future might hold for such an unconventional pairing. She was walking and suddenly the air felt different, the heat haze was gone. The sounds and presence of acrid car exhaust was missing from the clean crisp air.
“Whoa.” Elisa jerked her head up and around, no skyline, and no traffic noise. It looked like a quaint small town with all the white picket fences and open sky. “I thought all this world traveling business was done.” She grumbled and looked down the street for some indication of where she was. A newspaper stand was as good as any. She peered through the window at a paper.
“Burgess, Pennsylvania? Where the heck is that?”
