[18+] What happens when you fall in love with the one person you're not supposed to? ❝You and me, and never us; a complicated series of almost-interactions❞ * It was the summer before college, and Kara was forced to spend the holidays with her new family. Little did she know, a lot could happen in one hot summer. * The moment Kara laid her eyes on Ryder, she knew she was a goner. She had never met anyone as sexy, fun, and liberating. But she'd made a promise that she won't give herself away before marriage. The moment Ryder laid his eyes on Kara, he knew his life wouldn't be the same again. He had never met a girl so pure and genuine. He made it his life mission to be with her, for better or for worse. Except, they could never be together; the universe had played a cruel joke on them. Their love for one another was the kind of love that only comes once in a blue moon, yet they could never be anything more than a brother and sister. All that love, yet it was barely anything at all. *Warning: This story contains mature content. Enter at your own risk.

You don't have to tell me anything you don't want to. But I'm respectfully telling you right now that I know you have a drinking problem. And I'm not going to judge you or shame you or anything like that. All I want to do is help you, no strings attached. I'm not doing it in hopes of getting anything from you, I just...I know you don't feel like you owe me anything, but I feel like I owe you at least this much. Hell, I owe you more. The last thing I want to do is see you go down this road that I grew up on. So please just accept my help.'' Damien pleads. I see the worry buried deep within the ocean of his eyes. ''Okay,'' I agree eventually. ''Under one condition,'' I add quickly. I reach into my pocket, taking out the note that he wrote to me last night. I hand it to him. ''No more notes. I don't like waking up to goodbyes from you, Damien.'' I tell him seriously. ''Okay, no more notes," He promises. ∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆∆ Meet Damien and Steven. They have history... Seven years ago Damien abandoned everything he ever had with Steven in a hotel room. Sneaking away while Steven was asleep, and leaving nothing in his wake but a world shattering love letter. Now it's seven years later and they aren't teenagers anymore... By chance they manage to cross each other's paths again, and Damien realizes... He wants everything he left back in that hotel room. But is it too late for the both of them? Will they choose each other? Or the lives they've made for themselves? Can their past bring them closer? Or will their future tear them apart? •••• 🏆HIGHEST RANKINGS🏆: #1 (in) No Hate #2 (in) In The Closet #3 (in) Gay Books #4 (in) Sean O'pry #6 (in) #TGTG
