Separated Paradise: Chapter 4
Gale and I texted each other for a little while until he told me that Clara was back and he didn’t want her to start anything so he would text me later.

My room was on the second floor, in perfect view of him as he puffed on his e-cig, his blond-streaked black hair just long enough to cover his eyes from my sight- even though I knew they were a lovely hazel color.
I always wondered why he didn’t just smoke actual cigarettes. I mean, he had to have had some kind of health complex or something.
I had imagined this conversation between he and I so many times, but in the seven months that I had been living in the apartment right next door to his, I hadn̵
