The Bad Boy of Mine

He leans in closer to me, leaving only an inch of space between our bodies. I freeze and stare at him wide-eyed. Our noses are almost touching. My breathing hitch. My heart is pounding against my ribcage. Hard and fast. I stare into his shimmering blue eyes. His eyes hold something I could not decipher. I find myself leaning towards him involuntarily. Is he going to kiss me?

He says, "Screw that. I'll take a nap."

She says, "Oh no, where did I go wrong?"

Zoey Summers, Chris Martinez.

With their names together, side by side, they form a nice ring, huh?

Meet Zoey. She's studious. She's kind. She's a good girl.

Meet Chris. He's not studious. He's not kind. He's a bad boy.

When Zoey moved to a new place with her Mother, she never expected all these to happen. Just her and her Mother, that's all. But there came Chris, waltzing his way into her life. She didn't want boyfriends. She didn't want relationships. She want to study.

Zoey knew she didn't have a pleasant childhood. Well, neither did Chris.

What happens when you put these two broken angels together?
