She's my girlfriend...

I closed and locked the door behind me. When I turned around, Karen was standing in front of me with her arms akimbo as she tapped her foot impatiently on the floor. I jumped, my heart in my mouth. "Oh my gosh, you almost gave me a heart attack."

Karen rolled her baby blue eyes, looking up at me. Our height difference doesn't make sense to me because even with her small size, she makes it seem like she's the powerful one. She is, though. "You and Aiden? Aiden Knight? When did this happen? Yesterday?"

I sighed, shoving my hands in my pockets. "Last night, but it's only a thing until we leave here, basically."

Karen looked at me confusedly, then frowned deeply. "Athena, you do realize that by the end of it, someone may get hurt in the process."

I nodded slowly, and she pats my arm lovingly. "I hope you both understand what's really going on between the two of you and that you know what you are getting yourselves into."
