On the Edge of Tomorrow by 0liviaRose436

The choices of youth shape the lives of many. What if falling in love meant giving up yourself, and your privacy; would you still fall? Focused on her future, Lily Turncott went to a concert for one reason: to end her dead-end relationship, but she finds herself in a chance encounter with Billy Collins, a magnetic musician on the cusp of stardom. While the connection is instant and undeniable, they are moving in different directions. Lily, focused on the endless possibilities of her budding future as she works through the second half of her college career, is drawn to Billy just as the musical career he has been chasing for half a decade is finally catapulting him to the foreign world of praise and fame. Lily's fear of being lost in the shadow of Billy's bright lights and loud concerts and Billy's gentlemanly reluctance to pull her to a world where Lily could be muted push them to set aside their love, but life continues to draw them together as they try to navigate their blossoming lives.

I would obviously get pinned against the wall and god knows what next. "No cheating." he put a hand around my waist and pushed me roughly against the wall. His hot biceps caging me in his arms. He actually smiled a little this time, it was not a smirk. And his little smile was totally panty-dropping. "I'll take that as a hint." I smirked. "For what?" his lips hovered above mine. "Well, if you keep pinning me against the wall, you want to kiss me." I shrugged. But I was totally affected by this closeness. I felt tingles and goosebumps run down my whole body. "I do."
