**WARNING: THIS STORY CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT AND LANGUAGE** "You're going to listen to me whether you like it or not" he grabbed my arms and I stared at him, the water from the shower falling onto us. Drops of water fell from his curls as his face was inches away from mine. "I'm sorry! Please understand that I'm sorry" his eyes dilated as he looked down at me and I felt more tears run down my cheeks. "She doesn't mean anything to me. I've been feeling lonely and as much as I hate to say it, she's only been a distraction." His voice croaked and his hands moved from my arms to my face. I looked up at him, as his thumbs wiped away my tears and he sighed. "I can't lose you Daisy Lanson. Please understand that I'm sorry if I hurt you. You're all I have in this world and I can't afford to lose you" His voice felt broken as he looked down at me, the two of us soaking wet underneath the shower.

"How many romance books do you read?" Devin asks me. I shrug. "I like them," I say. I keep browsing, running my fingers along the spines. "So, you like romance then?" he asks me. I nod. "What's your favorite part of a love story?" "I like the very first kiss, but I like the second one even more," I say. I bite my lip and look at him. Oh. My. God. What the hell am I doing? Am I flirting? I think that I'm actually flirting. With Devin. Devin, my best friend. I have officially lost my mind. I should probably stop. But I can't seem to. "Will you grab me that one?" I ask. I point above my head, my back's pressed against the bookcase. He locks his gaze on mine and reaches over me to grab the book I asked for. "Thanks." I don't move and neither does he. Riley and Devin have been best friends forever-since Kindergarten. It's Senior year of high school, now. And it's always been simple, Riley's got his back, he's got hers. But as life goes on Riley can't help but wonder if maybe he's not just her best friend, if she likes him as possibly something more. As her feelings deepen and become something greater it becomes more evident that she's falling, really hard. No matter how hard Riley tries she can't stop falling, she can't stop from loving him. Even if it tears her to pieces or even if it destroys their friendship. Pretty soon Riley is going to have to choose between walking the safe line of friendship or taking the unpaved path of love. Will she risk everything for love?
