So, what's your favorite color? He asked me.
Well, I like black and blue. I said. What's your favorite color?
My favorite color is black. He said. It's so beautiful, yet so misunderstood. People see that color negatively and fear it, yet many people need it. When people sleep, they're surrounded by black, in their most vulnerable state. It is a color of trust. And without the color black, other colors won't exist. Black is strong, bold, and beautiful, and Wether people like it or not, we need it!
I turned to look at him and he was looking at me with intensity in his eyes. I got instant butterflies.
Whoa, that was....... deep.
Not as deep as the feelings I have for you. He said barely a whisper.
And I swore right then and there, my heart could've burst.
***********************************************
Nerina Brooklyn is super smart, with perfect sarcasm. However, she has a rebellious wild side, that nobody knows about, due to her lifestyle holding her true self back. She has been traveling around the world with her family, being in a military. However, when her dad gets out the military to work for the government and have a amazing salary, has settled into a small town in Maryland. Nerina spent 4 years of torture, with fake friends, racist rednecks, and cold winters. But finally she graduates and gets accepted into her dream college in Hawaii!
Between meeting new real friends, having a whole new lifestyle, she can finally let her wild side loose and truly be who she is. But then she ends up meeting an even wilder boy, who makes her life even more interesting. And now all her friends and fake ones of the past are trying to reach out to her, seeing her amazing vlogs on social media, purposely there for show.
Can she handle the crazy present, or will she spiral back into her past, for her popularity revenge.
I look at California. She sits on my lap in the circle of us pot heads. She's not what I expected. She smokes she's the most sarcastic person I've ever met. She's smart but hates school. She's a girly girl who hates dresses. She defies logic in so many different ways I expect her to sprout a horse tail and start flying.
Heck when we first talked Tuesday she called me handsome and looked confused herself. She acts like she has no secrets, and maybe she doesn't, but there's something different about her. She holds confidence yet she's shy. She smokes even though she's supposed to be the typical good girl.
I'm determined to find out what she's hidding if it's the last thing I do.
"Baby it's almost one am." I say glancing at my phone. "We should head out, your dad already dislikes me."
She turns back to me and nods. She lightly stands up and walks to the door but waits for me to walk with her.
"Trevor!" She yells in her friends ear making him jump away from her other friend Greg. "You get a ride with Mar okay?" He needs and foes back to his public make out session with the other boy leaving Cali with a look of approval and bewilderment.
She clips her hair over her shoulder exposing the skin of her upper back due to the low dip on the back of her dress.
In the split second I see the skin I think I see a black crow with a green eye, but that's crazy.
Only crow members can get crow tattoos and only descendants of the original crow can have the green eye.
By tattoo that's on my lower back has a red eye. The red eye means non blood related member. But I have a smaller one with a blue eye beside it. The blue eye means leader.
When California's biggest secret is discovered by her new boyfriend will she be able to keep her past and family secret the secret she wants it to be? Will the secret tear the couple apart or push them closer together?
