Descent (Black Heart Romance presents Heaven & Hell)

“You’re going,” Charity texts back, a bulldozer like me. No wonder Hallie likes her.
“I’m not ready,” Hallie states.
Not ready?
I know she means because of me, but I need more details.
I don’t get them because Charity thinks she means she isn’t ready to move on from Jackson.
“Listen babe, dude was a stinky piece of shit and you’re so much better off without him. Imagine
missing dog shit you scraped off the bottom of your shoe, because that’s pretty much the equivalent of
missing Jackson.”
“Why do you hate him so much?” Hallie texts back. “I mean, I know why I hate him so much
(that’s so not what I meant by I’m not ready, btw) but I don’t see why you do.”
“I don’t hate trash, I’m just happy once it’s been taken out. Now, get your hot little ass some
sleep tonight because tomorrow you’re meeting your soulmate.”
“Ugh,” Hallie texts back. “I don’t wanna.”
“Too bad!” Charity replies.
I grab the notepad on my desk and jot down a note for myself, then I scroll up because it seems
I’ve missed some messages. I knew Charity had mentioned something about Hallie going on a date
with some guy she liked for her, but I didn’t realize it was actually happening.
Tomorrow night.
That is quite fucking displeasing.
Once I’m all caught up on the texts I missed and I have all the information I need.
When it was only an idea, it was cute how she thought I’d let her go out with another man.
Now that it’s a reality, I guess I’ll have to show her how very wrong she was.
