He became stoic at my statement and clenched his jaws. The next thing I knew, he grabbed my hip possessively. I gasped at the sudden contact and before I could say anything he said dangerously, "Listen, cara. Listen to me carefully. You. Are. Not. Going. Anywhere. With. That. Eric. Kid. And if you dare defy me, I'll be much happy to show you what happens when you anger me. And trust me, if you think I'm harsh right now, then it's gonna be ten times worse." Before I could come back with a reply, he claimed my lips into a kiss. An almost punishing and a possessive one. ~~~~~~^^°°°^^~~~~~~ Three years ago Scarlett had her heart broken by her then savior and first love.

Everyone's all about the labels but why should I put a label on something so simple and make it complicated? Why should I put down a label just to satisfy other? We don't have to fit under a category or abide by their rules. Because all we are is two people who care about each other.
