Sam's Pov (A few days before her 18th birthday)

Thump. Thump. Thump.

My heart's beating crazy, honestly like horses going for war. A little more Sam. You can do this!

I push myself, feeling the burn and strain on my thighs and calves. It's been months and I am still not used to it. I've been running every day for about 5 months now, and by running I mean exercising. My eyes find the perfect girls in their tight workout clothes in front of me, going for an hour now, her hair perfect, her legs, her arms, a flat stomach, everything about her is perfect.

And then there's me.

A few months ago Avery started to slip in thoughts about wanting to "mate" after my birthday. I can't like physically deny that I don't want to. I really want to. Things have been crazy between us recently. Not a bad crazy just a, well, braver crazy.

Let's go back to the time Avery flirted with and teased me immensely during the Christmas dinner we had at home. She casually removed the shirt she was wearing, her eyes dark and on me, as she undid one button at a time. I was hooked, I couldn't look away. My nails created crescent marks on my thighs and I kept biting on my lip to stop any lewd noises from escaping. She knew I was watching and she wanted me to. And then she did something that god- she should go to jail for; slipping her tongue from in between her lip and did a licking motion of the air, letting her eyes drop to my hips, below that and then back to mine. I almost let off a gasp at how obscene that looked and what she was intending to do. I couldn't look her in the eyes again that night. The thought of her even touching me- down, down there makes heat pool in my stomach.

The texts she sent me that night and the days that follow. It was as if the switch in her turned on and her thoughts were wild. She kept saying how much she wanted me and how she can't wait to kiss me and touch me and leave hickeys on any skin of mine that she could feel and see. I mean, fuck, what do you say to things like that? It distracted me for days to end, my thoughts consumed by images that made me shiver from the delight of them happening. It made me want her even more, I wanted her to do things to me, whatever she wanted. I wanted to do things to her.

This brings me here. A few days before school ended, a bunch of girls were talking about going to the beach and my friends; Kyrah, Lynn, and Eli wanted to go too and asked me to come. I was going to agree to it until someone pointed out that "no one invited the fat whale", meaning me. And suddenly I was just more aware of how I looked and I just wasn't okay looking like I had a few extra pounds on compared to them. It broke my heart. And it made me even worse when I realized Avery wouldn't want me looking like this. I wasn't perfect like the other girls at school, I didn't have a flat tummy or thin arms, or clear skin not to mention the scars I have all over me. I just, it hit me. It hit me really hard that I wasn't beautiful. Avery doesn't need me looking like that, she doesn't deserve a fat whale as a mate.

Avery's Pov (On the day of Sam's birthday)

"I told you that I want them both ready, Joanne!" I sighed angrily rubbing my temples. Everyone was pissing me off today, and for once I just want things to go fucking perfect for the love of my life and every darn idiot gotta mess things up.

"I'm sorry ma'am, I'll go and check on it. I'll call Jack to check the plane." I grunted and threw the phone onto my head before screaming out in frustration. Just one fucking day world. Could you not mess it up for me?!

W- Calm down Avery, it'll go okay. We still got time.

A- I just, I've been planning this for so long and I don't want it to flop you know. I'm gonna fire her, I swear I'll fire her if this doesn't go right. Sam deserves the best.
