Where I Belong

The girl I loved is the woman I can't have....

It was simple: Pay the debt and I stay out of jail. Pay the debt and I stay alive.

But I sacrificed it all for Beth.

Punishment is coming, but I can take it - as long as Beth is safe. Away from her mother and everyone else who would hurt her.

I gave it all up for two days with her. And it was worth it.

She always was.

The secrets we keep are what tears us apart....

We're supposed to be done. Over. Tommy goes his way; I go mine. Cue the heartbreaking music.

It's time for me to finally forget him, but I don't think I can. And when the danger closes in on Tommy, we're on the run again. From Bates. From my mother. From our past. And there are no safe places to hide.

Except one. And it's the place that will hurt Tommy the most.

But maybe it's time for me to face my past. My demons.

Maybe it's time for me to save Tommy for once.
