"Mr. Tomlinson, what are-" I cut her off. "Babe, call me Louis." I said and chuckled when I felt the heat rise to her neck. "Louis, what are we?" She asked, and I pulled my lips away from her neck and looked her in the eye. "I don't know love," I pecked her on her soft and addicting lips before continuing. "But all I know is that your mine, and I'm yours." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Misery Annette Claire is a reserved and untrusting seventeen year old teen, who has been left to defend for herself and her alcoholic mother after her father left when she was younger. Because of this, she has a hard time believing that love truly exists, and if it does, it will only end in disaster. But when her all-girls school decides to hire five male teachers, one particularly stands out; Mr. Tomlinson, the music teacher. After the two meet, Louis makes it his mission to help the girl who seems so broken and lost. But what's fueling this need to help? Could it be love? If it is, will he be able to break down her sky-high walls and help her trust again? But when it comes to the law, nothing is sacrificed. Not even love. *Copyright to Horan_hugsrock
