The Bad Boy's Deception

" The problem is," he said as he leaned in, " if I kissed you, I don't think I'd be able to stop myself. "

" Well, don't kiss me then. I'd need to breathe at some point and death from erotic asphyxiation isn't how i plan to go out..."

Kayla Morgan never understood what her parents meant by, " Bad things happen to good people. " She had a great family. Her mom and dad loved her and her older sister and spent every moment possible with them.

That was, until she was six when she lost her mother during her baby sister's birth. Her dad went from a caring father, grieving the loss of his wife to an abusive alcoholic.

Carter Marshall isn't as strong as everyone thinks he is. Being the school's bad boy, he has expectations to live up to and feelings to hide. He'd much rather be hurt physically than emotionally because you can put a bandaid on your finger but not on your heart.

What happens when he starts to slowly break down her walls without her even noticing?

Will he build her back up with windows so light can shine through?

Or will she have to construct them again herself?

" I love you, " Carter shouted, his words impacting me. " I have loved you since the day I met you, and since then, what I've felt has only grown. My thoughts can't fucking move without being drawn back to you. " He dropped his hands by his sides, defeat taking over his feature. " You're it. You're my world, " his voice cracked. Slowly, he looked towards my eyes with no remorse.

It hurt my heart to say what I did, but it needed to be said. I couldn't have him breaking down my walls again and getting hurt. " But you're not my world, " I whispered, " you never will be. "
