Penn Romero is a smart girl. Smart girls don't get involved with their professors. ***** It begins with a casual meeting at a speakeasy. It begins with a drink. It begins with a stolen stare. It begins with the not-knowing, the secrecy, the sneaking around. Penn Romero hardly knew what she was getting into when she was drawn in by Chase Steele's magnetism, and she hardly knew he'd be her new Film Theory professor. Against everything she's ever known, against everything she should do, she stills falls into a dark spiral of manipulation that keeps her trapped in a spider web, losing sight of who the real Penn is--all that's left is what he has made of her and all he's taken. It ends with him taking and taking. It ends with the should've-knowns. It ends in ruin. ***** THIS IS NOT A ROMANCE. DON'T ADD THIS TO ROMANCE READING LISTS, PLEASE.

UNKNOWN NUMBER 2:49am I love you no you don't SD: 02.11.2020 FD: 15.12.2020 *This is written in lower case because I thought I was cool and edgy at the time and to be honest Ella gives me a lower case vibe and I don't even know what that means, I was not cool and edgy just lazy. But just a warning.* **ALSO, there has been some confusion (due to twitter) this is NOT a fan fiction, I haven't written a fic in the longest time so none of the stories I have written or am currently writing are fan fictions. Just wanted to clear that up.**
