I guess it was inevitable. I've got a big mouth and while I'm good at keeping secrets, sometimes it gets away from me. Especially with Jim. Maybe it's knowing he can hear the beat of my heart, the tiniest hesitation or hitch in my breath. He's a human lie detector so why should I even try?

So I told him how I felt. Fine. He hasn't said a word about it? Whatever, Man. That's how he wants to be about it, I can deal with that. He's a quiet man. Secretive. I can dig that.

Then he goes and accuses me of trying to replace him with Alex. What the hell? Okay sure. She was tall and leggy and prettier than most models. She could also snap me in two and SHE KILLED ME. I mean, what the hell. I can't believe he just doesn't get it. I wasn't replacing him. I was trying to keep him from replacing me.

All about the jealousy, you know? About seeing his perfect mate right there in that strong, powerful, psychotic shebitc... I mean, woman. She could hold her own with him, understand everything it is he's going through and never have to ask questions because she was there, she knew.

So now he's blaming himself I died, I'm blaming myself I died and maybe... maybe he blames me. If he thinks I brought her in to replace him, then maybe somewhere deep down he thinks I deserve what I got. He brought me back from the dead but maybe he thinks I brought this all on myself.

Maybe he's right. Maybe I did.
