Love story of two people who choose not to speak.
The book is very much random but I thought it was a cute concept.
There's Hidiya. She's very outgoing, loving, and she's a bit on the weird side but that's her charm.
There's Demetrius. He's a bit of...

(when Theo picked her up and are headed to her parents house for that important meeting)
Gabriella's pov
We arrived at my house and my mom greeted us at the door.
"Kids please follow me to the living room please!" She gave Theo a small hug and led us to the living room.
Theo and I glanced at each other in confusion.
What's going on here?
My mom sat us down in on the couch. Side by side and all of our family surrounded us.
Cousins I haven't seen in years.
Aunts and uncles I didn't see until weddings or funerals.
What is happening here?
"Gabby and Theo we've all arranged for you two to get married!"
Theo and I didn't miss the chance to jump up from the couch in confusion yelling.
"Huh???!"

Camrynn's pov
I woke up once again in Austin's room alone.
I wonder where he is.
I walked out of the room and saw that he was cooking.
"Hey! I was wondering when you were going to wake up. It's 6 pm right now. You should eat something." He said as he slide a plate over to me. It was a small serving of spaghetti with a salad on the side. It looks super good!
"You cook??" He laughed.
"Not really. I can make a couple things but I'm not a chef or anything." I sat down at the table close to me. I took a bite and it was delicious.
"It's super good!" I exclaim.
"Wait really? I usually eat this everyday so I'm kind of used to it."
"Yes! This is one of the best meals I've ever had." He looked so confused.
"Camrynn. I don't mean to ask this right as you just wake up. But were you ever taken cared of?"
It took me a while to think about it. My dad never really cared about me but nonetheless he always gave me the things I needed to live.
"I'm not sure. I grew up always having things. My dad did take care of me. But it was always to an extent. There would..." I sighed. " There would be nights when he wouldn't feed me. Then times when he would lock me in my room and I would have to text the girls that I wouldn't be able to make it to school the next day. Sometimes when I wasn't able to go to sleep but to an extent I was taken cared of. But I don't think I was ever loved. I don't really know what love is."
He looked at me with so much worry. His eyes were watering. He sat down next to me at the table and scooted his chair closer. He had tears falling from his face and all I could is just look at him.
Why is he shedding tears for me?
"Camrynn. You deserve the world. I only needed to know you for like a day to know that you are very precious. You are unlike any other."
"Austin"
"I'm not saying this to excuse anything your father has done. He has no right to even call himself a father. He should have given you the love you needed. He's created this woman that's scared of life. Scared of accepting herself. Scared of opening up. Camrynn you are perfect the way you are." I smiled while looking down.
I can't get myself to look at his face.
"Camrynn" I looked up. "I'm very serious about wanting to be with you. I know so many things are happening with you right now and I promise it won't ever happen again. I will do all I can to protect you. But you have to trust me." I looked down again and noticed how close his hands were. Wanting to touch me.
"May I hold your hand?" He had his hands out already so I took them myself. He held on tightly.
"Will you let me take care of you?"
I nodded my head.
"I'll try to open up more. I-I'll try." I said as I squeezed his hand back.
"No no you don't have to do anything. Don't change yourself for me ever. Stay as you are, okay?"
"Okay" I said.
"Camrynn?"
"Hm?"
"Will you allow me to show you what love is?"
I immediately blushed.
"Um"
"Not in any inappropriate kind of way. But the way that you should've gotten a long time ago. Please let me grow to love you. I'd want to be a step closer to being the man you'd want to be with."
I smiled. Then moved his hand up to my face. I leaned into his warm hands.
"You're already a step closer. I just need some time okay?"
