Went to the meetup and WOW I didn’t do any writing for a while today. I really did wait until late in the evening to get started. I’m currently debating whether or not to keep going as I haven’t found a good BSB song to kill to just yet. A couple checks, then we shall see if I continue tonight.

From Chapter 9
“No!” Lira yelled back. “God damn it, get me out of here. I don’t want it to happen again. It was so bad before, please not again.” Her voice started getting a little quieter at the end and she could feel the tears of fear in her eyes as she started to heave, the air coming into her a little easier now, but leaving her just as quickly as she struggled. Even her struggles were starting to die against the feeling of desperation.
“It’s not going to happen again,” Shane said, though he wasn’t sounding all that confident about that, like trying to tell a girlfriend who had just informed him that she was pregnant that everything was going to be all right. It wasn’t, but he needed to say something to calm her down.
“What the hell are you talking about?” Calvin demanded, sounding a little frantic now himself.
“Oh god, the first time,” Jayde said, suddenly remembering. “From the first time.”
Morgan was the one to finally illuminate Calvin to the situation. “She disconnected from he drip the first time around,” he said, more serious than his previous snapping anger. “It didn’t sound pleasant. And I think we’re all going to understand soon just why she’s not all that happy about what’s happening.”
His voice fell near the end, the end of it just barely sounding out as Shane tried to hold something it. It was obvious from the low growl emanating from his own block that silenced them all. He tried to hold it in and it was obvious, but there was no need to.
“Here we go,” Morgan said darkly.
