"A very hot guy that I know you can't resist," he winks at me. Dick. "Well you got that wrong as usual," I roll my eyes at him and turn around, to walk home. "Please don't go," I hear a sad whisper behind me. Is he for real? "Stop playing these games with me. I'm not just one of your other whores that you can just have sex with whenever you feel like it. I know how you are. I know what you are," I snap at him, disgust clear in my voice. I wait for a response but I don't get one so I just turn around and leave. ~ #1 in heartbreak 10th December 2k19 #1 in college 27th March 2k19 #1 in toxic 20th July 2k19 #6 in romance 4th March 2k21
