Anna looked around. "Where's Marco?" She asked. Marco was her sixteen year old cousin. He had shaggy brown hair and bright green eyes. They had always been very close, at least until Marco had started high school last year."He's at home." Her aunt replied. "Oh." Anna said with disappointment. "Are we still going to the carnival Friday?" Her aunt's smile faded. "He's actually going to a friend's house that day, but Saturday would work." Her aunt answered. Anna forced a smile. "Okay." If there were ever any sort of family gathering, you could always find Anna and Marco together. Whether it was watching movies or playing video games, they were a team. Marco was supposed to be the responsible one, but he liked to tease Anna from time to time. Anna always managed to return the favor. When they were younger they would almost always play Hide and Go Seek at family gatherings, it had kind of become a tradition for them. Anna still didn't know all of Marco's hiding places. Now Anna never really saw Marco. He was either at home, at school, or with friends. Anna felt heartbroken to see him with others, but it was part of life. It wasn't like Marco would be around forever... Right?

Love with strings detached
I put on a show only for him in front of hundreds of people. I bring one hand up to my hair flicking them to the other side, trailing that hand down to my sternum and then my boob as I keep swaying my hips from to side, bending my knees as I lower myself a bit to the ground before sharply standing up again and slowly spinning around, circling my hips. I run my hands through the back of my hair before nailing my gaze on his eyes, slowly walking up to him. I watch him as he wets his lips before biting his plumb bottom one, eyes trailing up my body. Once I reach him, I wrap my arms around his neck and run my fingers through his hair as I press my body up against his. His hands shoot out to grab me from my lower waist, pulling me even closer to him as he pushes a leg between mine, staring into my eyes. I turn my head to the side and brush my lips against his ear before licking and biting his earlobe the same way I did at the party before whispering a few words he was dying to hear. "Take me back to your place." ---------- Theo is a 20-year-old university student with a bad temper. Letting go of the past can be a difficult thing to do but a much-needed one to move on.

"So, um, what are we?" I had to ask. Josh seemed taken aback but still answered casually. "What do you mean? Friends. Like always." I nodded again. Mm-hm. So friends who kissed. Yup, got it. Pretty clearly. "Alright." We headed upstairs to our second floor math class. *** "Yeah, but..." Joshua's voice was suddenly very quiet. It made me feel bad. "Realistically Carmen, we haven't been acting as 'just friends.'" He got louder. "In fact, for the past week or so, I've been considering you to be my girlfriend." He paused. "Is that wrong of me?" I sighed inwardly. "No. It's just, I think-" I searched for my words. "I think we're better off where we started. As two people who like each other and vibe well, but without a title to complicate things." I couldn't figure out whether I was just saying this as an excuse not to be with him. My mind was jumbled. "No title makes things more complicated." *** Enjoy!Complete
