It Hurts. Every time I see them together, I am reminded that I can't have her. I am just her best friend. To her, I am only a small part of her life. But to me, she is my whole world. I want her to notice me the way I notice her, I want her to look at me the way she looks at Jesse. But that won't happen. It never will. (Trigger Warning) This story is very depressing but it's not a tragedy. Also it can get pretty frustrating at times, but it's worth the read.

A Jason McCann fanfiction. "I want a bad boy to be good, but only for me. A boy like a hurricane unpredictable tumultuous vicious with the ferocious waves streaking in his fiery eyes. Yet when he looks at me the waves suddenly dance away back into the ocean and the moon comes out instead gleaming its pale, yellow light into his eyes and when he holds me in his arms even though he's the most dangerous thing I can feel safe. His love is wild and untamed just like he is but strangely enough, until he loves you you will never know what true peace feels like." Every girl wants a bad boy to be good just for her. Every boy wants a good girl to be bad just for him. Tessa Klein, who struggles with loss, fear, and insecurities, is a textbook good girl. Jason McCann is a bad boy for the same reasons, but with a dangerous streak to go along with it. Like a moth to the flame, Jason becomes attracted to Tessa's light, strength, and warmth. Like a butterfly to the wheel, Tessa becomes attracted to Jason's thrill, complexity, and intrigue. He not only introduces her to a world of gangs, danger, and excitement - all the right wrongs - but rights some of her wrongs as well. Can she do the same for him? Or is she just fated to become the good girl gone bad?
