After 3 years Lucas Friar mysteriously reappears back into Riley Matthew's life. Much to her dismay. Since he spent 5 years seemingly torturing her, he's back and has no intention of leaving her alone again. Only this time in a slightly... different way. GMW CHOICE AWARD WINNER: Best Character Development Cover by @PrincessRiles isn't it amazing?!?! ----------------------------------------------------------- "OH SWEET CHEEKS!" Lucas sings and throws an arm over my shoulder, "why on earth are you going to class without me?" I shrug casually and continue to walk to class, "Dorothy got back to Kansas. I'm hoping this is all a dream." I state with an arch of the eyebrow. He simply laughs at my misfortune, the jerk! "How did you get all the same classes as me? Let me rephrase that, how did you know what all my classes are?" He shrugs innocently, though that is the furthest thing that Lucas Friar is. "I don't know what you're talking about Riles." I have this rated as Mature for precautionary purposes since i'm not yet done writing the story. It will probably change by the time i'm done.

Promise- A declaration or assurance that one will do a particular thing or a particular thing will happen. ---------------------- The brunette moved to hold his large calloused hand. "Thank you for defending me." She whispered under her breath. His grasp on her hand only tightened, and desperately tried to hide the fact he didn't want to let go. "Even if you turn down my offer, i'll still protect you. I will always be there when you need me, promise." ------------------- Promises, many are made, few are accomplished. Riley and Lucas will have their own love story. How will they choose to handle it when one goes off to be a famous musician and the other enlists in the Marines? After years will the one promise still stand? 'Promise is a big word, it either makes something or breaks something' -- Unknown Beautiful cover by @jexicasneverland

"Lucas you have no idea what you're trying to get into." Her face was so serious and more than that she spoke with so much passion... passion for me. And that made my heart soar. She actually cared. "You can't like me." "Too late." I whisper while taking a step closer to her, not at all enjoying the space between us. I hate those words 'you can't like me'. I release a small smile, as I slowly stalk around her. "I can like whoever I want." I know she likes it when I get demanding, "And I like you." My hands snake around her waist to tug her impossibly closer, our bodies are pressed together. I hear the hitch in her breath causing me to inwardly smirk. "You wouldn't if you knew everything. I'm not safe." She whispers while her fingertips trail down my shirt covered abdomen. "I don't care." My heart begins to race from the close proximity. Like it has done since the first day I met her. I give it 30 seconds before I am kissing her senseless. She shakes her head, almost admonishing herself for even trying to think of us together. "I'm not good for you." "Yes you are." My hands grip her thighs to lift her off the ground, and seconds later I feel her lips crash onto mine. These damn butterflies and this feeling, I've never felt this way before. Yeah, we are so different, but I couldn't care less. She's a fighter and I am what she refers to as a 'goody goody'. She's aggressive and I'm passive. I'm submissive, a good portion of the time and she takes control, she's never afraid and I am afraid of one thing. Her. ******************* Join Riley and Lucas on an epic adventure of love, laughter and uphill battles. When things seem damn near impossible, will they keep fighting to keep what they have alive? Both physically and metaphorically. Or will they Tap Out? Beautiful cover by @majestyriles
