Blake stood there. His baby girl in his arms as she played with his ear, trying to get his attention not knowing his attention is all on me.
"Please, Hera," he croaked," please come back."
I let my tears fall freely. Did he not understand? He hurt me. In many more ways than one. How can I forgive him after what he's done to Hannah?
He came closer, and out of instinct I stepped back. "S-Stop. Don't come any closer. Please," I begged while crying a river.
"Hera, please. Come back to me. I...I need you...to be close to me. I can't live without you, Hera," he cried. Tears ran down his face. And he didn't wipe them away which surprised me so much. Blake was crying. For me. Because of me.
"Come back to us," he whispered," come back to Hannah. She needs you just as much as I do."
My eyes went to Hannah. She wore a frown on her cute face as she stared at her father cry. Her own green eyes had tears in them, mirroring Blake's expression. Then, she looked to me. Her pout was enough to make anyone give in. I was once that person. But, not anymore.

"Now, Hannah, I need you to be quiet, yeah? You can't be talking here," I whispered. Hannah furrowed her eyebrows.
"But, why?"
"Because, if you do, I won't buy you that play house you've been wanting. Now, don't talk, sweetie."
I tucked Hannah's head into my neck, trying to keep her from receiving any scary stares from anyone. This place definitely was not for innocent children.
I sat down on the chair that was positioned in front of a wooden table. Seated before me was Blake in his large, orange suit. He looked horrible. His hair was disheveled and under his eyes were bags. He looked like she hadn't slept in days. And yet, he remained undeniably handsome.
His stare went from the ground to me. His green eyes immediately widened at my presence. Blake's mouth stretched into a smile.
"Hera...."

"Okay, you know what? You're such a jackass and I never should have kissed you," I say. Colton stands up. His green eyes are just as angry as mine are.
"Then why did you?" he asks.
"I don't know!" I yell. "Why did you kiss me back?"
"Hey, you kissed me," Colton says.
"We already established that! God! It's like talking to a wall. Whatever I say just fucking bounces right off of you!" I yell. "Do you have any idea how maddening you are?" Colton looks at me.
"You don't think you're infuriating?" Colton asks. I narrow my eyes. He starts to walk towards the door. I grab the M&M's and chuck them at Colton. He whips around, his eyes blazing green.
"Where the fuck are you going? We're talking!" I yell, crossing my arms. He rubs the back of his neck where the M&M's hit him.
"You wanna talk? Fine. Let's talk," Colton says. "You're obviously messed up from all of the shit your mom did."
"Maybe I am! It's not your fucking business!" I pause. "Why do you even care? You're just some manwhore, right? A fuckboy?" Colton laughs dryly.
"Is that what you think I am?" he asks. He takes a step closer to me. I'm two seconds away from kissing him again.
Andy Reed-Collins has never fit in. With both of her parents being doctors, she's grown up in the hospital and has more friends there than she does at her high school. She's made it through most of her Senior year when she meets Colton Samson.
Colton's bad for for her in every way. He's a nortorious manwhore who uses girls. But, when they become Biology partners, everything changes for Andy.
As she spends more time with Colton, she can't deny their growing attraction to each other. The harder she tries to resist it, the more she's drawn to him. With his endlessly green eyes and knowing smirk, Colton sees through all of her walls.
But just as Andy and Colton find each other, he turns out to be nowhere near perfect as he seems. Something's standing between her and Colton, and she's left with a choice.
Will she choose him?
