On my way to find another liquid companion, I stumble into the one person I need to get off my mind, but can't. I reach out, gripping her waist to steady her, while also keeping myself balanced in the process.
     "Reggie, what are you doing here? I thought you had other plans?" Olivia questions, folding her arms over her chest, making her cleavage perk up.
     Fuck. I'm staring.
     I set my empty bottle down, take her wrists and set them back by her side. "Keep those there," I slur.
     Her cheeks become a little more colorful as she tries not to grin, fully aware of what I'm implying. "You're hammered," she states the obvious.
     "You're stunning."

**


	Reggie and Olivia have been in each others lives for five years with one thing in common: both of them have a mother who has battled cancer. Olivia spent most of her middle-high school years helping her mother through rounds of chemo, remission, repeat. Her parents are letting her attend a university a few hours away, under the condition that she stays with Reggie. Not only to save money, but she's under the impression that they want him to keep and eye on her. However, it turns out they're intentions are the complete opposite.
	While Olivia's mother is in remission and getting back to her life, Reggie's mother is nearing the end and for his own personal reasons it's becoming more than he can handle. Over the years he's developed coping habits of his own and as much as Olivia tries to be there for him, he only pushes her away. He harbors a lot of feelings for Olivia and most of them confuse him. He's so back and forth with everything in his life that she's his only consistency. 
	That is until, Olivia starts seeing another guy on campus. As Olivia needs Reggie less and less, he begins to realize how much he actually needs her. 
	Can they work things out before he lets his addictions get the best parts of him?

#1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *Currently available at Amazon!!!* He'd never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she'd say every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She'd never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find that, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. ~~~ "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. ~~~ *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes, etc.)

It was gentle and soft, something I never expected from a guy like him. He moved his right hand from my cheek to my waist, tugging me against him, and molded our bodies together. A wave of electricity went down to my core when he licked my lips. "Open your mouth, Bella." His commanding husky voice against my lips jolted my heart, and I followed his order like a slave. With no control, a moan erupted from my throat as his tongue met mine. It was barely audible, but I knew he heard it when he smiled against my lips. He swept my hair from my face to my back and gathered them in his fist. He tugged my head back, deepening the kiss, and my heart thrashed in my chest. At that moment, I didn't need drugs to know what being high felt like because his lips were enough to send me on nine clouds. Just once and I was addicted to it. If this is how being kissed feels like, then fuck, I've wasted a lot of time. ~^~^~^~ FEATURED ON: @Romance (Romantic Suspense) HIGHEST RANKINGS: #1 Goodgirl, Darkpast #2 Badboy #5 Newadult

"I know what you're doing," I said, pointing my spoon at him and he cocked a curious eyebrow, "Is that so?" I nodded as I spooned more pudding into my mouth and straightened my back, "You're trying to intimidate me, make me spill my secrets. I have none so your psychology-ridden methods won't work on me." "I don't buy it," he grinned mischievously and I shrugged, "There's not a price." He walked towards me and placed his hands on either side of me on the counter, leaning in so almost our noses were touching. I cleared my throat and shook my head, "Elliott, you have to stop." A smile graced his plump lips as humor danced in his eyes, "And why's that?" I wriggled out of his stance and hopped off of the counter, eating another spoonful of the delicious goodness, "I want to see where things go with Dean. He's your brother so why are you doing this?" "Doing what?" He asked, knowingly. He asks so many questions. "That thing you do. That smile. Your touches.

His lips trail down my neck, sending shivers all over. "I love looking at you," he breathes, brushing the hair off my shoulders. "Will you let me look at you?" My heart hammers, a wild thing seeking his. "Yes." So he does. And I feel it. For a long moment, I just feel his eyes. Then, his hands. They skim down my spine, bowing my body into his. When his lips find my throat, I lean back into his hands, my eyes closing. He kisses between my breasts, then across them, taking my nipples into his mouth, swirling his tongue, sucking, and kissing, always kissing. I gasp lightly, my fingers curling into his hair. His response is a smile against my skin. He explores the expanse of my chest, my stomach, my shoulders. He pulls my arms out to kiss them, all the way to my wrists...all the way back.

The Art of Griffin

I look at his arms tense as he drags the needle over his client, his tattooed bicep bulges and a vein on his forehead becomes prominent as he focuses on the design. It is a beautiful sight, his green eyes move away for the clients body and raise to meet mine. "Daze, you need to stop looking at me like that" I shake my head to clear my thoughts as I feel my cheeks heating up. "Like what?" my voice sounds breathless. A smirk appears on his face "Like you want me to come over and take you now, as much as I would love to I'm a little bit busy". I cough in shock and turn around to cover up my embarrassment as I hear him laughing behind me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ After the loss of her parents, Daisy's best friend Sophies parents taking her in and it's time for her and Soph to make their way to college.
