With The Bad Boy ✔
"I wouldn't mind watching you. Maybe we could tan together this summer." He suggested. "Without having tan lines." I could feel the smirk playing on his lips. I lightly slapped his chest. "Don't ruin my mood with your cockiness." "I think I made it a lot better." "Well, keep going and you'll have to deal with your boner yourself." I teased. "Why does it always come back to my boner?" He asked with a smile playing on his lips. "Because it's just so huge." I said absentmindedly. "Is it now?" He raised a brow at me. I stripped myself away from him and pouted as I folded my arms across my chest. "That's not what I was supposed to say." "Hmm," He nodded. "What were you supposed to say then?" "That it's just as annoying as you." I laughed. SUMMARY: After the death of her father, Blake moves in with her estranged mother and twin sister.

Aunika Cladwell has spent her whole life building walls-walls thick enough to bury the echoes of an abusive childhood, the flashbacks, the nights she doesn't talk about. Love? That's a language she never learned. Emeris Voss has been counting his days ever since the diagnosis. Terminal cancer. That's what they told him. But before he goes, he wants to feel something real. Something that makes this life worth all the aching. When they meet in a quiet beach town where the waves never stop crashing, it's supposed to be simple. Temporary. But nothing about them stays quiet for long. Passionate, chaotic, and loud, they fall hard. And with every broken piece they uncover in each other, they start to wonder if love-raw, honest, and imperfect-might be enough to heal. But time isn't kind. And the past doesn't stay buried. And sometimes, staying is the bravest thing of all. 💔 𝐀 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐛𝐫𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐬𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐢𝐧 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞, 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐠𝐨, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲-𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐭 𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐬.

Just Grey: In a Black & White World
"But just look at the world around you, Love. There's messes everywhere with unclear answers. Don't give up yet." She told me gently. "I know, but I just wish that this was less confusing." "Well, things are gonna get confusing after a while, but you can't just stop trying. You've got to search harder for the answer; maybe it's somewhere you haven't looked yet. Someday you'll trip over a rock that's harder than this, and bandaids won't just stare you in the face. You won't know what to do. So prepare yourself for that day, baby." "I'm gonna trip over a rock?" I asked, eyes widening with worry. She shook her head, the bubbly symphony of her laughs echoing in the room. "No. I mean you're going to be in trouble one day and you won't know how to get out of it. Like this, but tougher." "You mean I'll have to go through this again? But even harder? Ugh, I won't make it." I sighed heavily. "No. I know you will. It just won't be so black and white. It'll be....in between the two." "So it'll be just grey?" She revealed her big, beautiful smile to me as if I had understood all that is right and wrong in the world.
