❝Sierra, don't ever believe in love. They cheat your feelings and they don't last forever." That is what she said. Well, maybe she's wrong, maybe love doesn't cheat your feelings. Maybe love lasts forever. I felt like I couldn't even breathe, everything was trying to stop me from doing so. But I did. "Stressed?" Luke asked. "No. Just rewinding back this memory in my brain. My mother said to never believe in love." "God, your mother is naive. Sorry, just thinking out loud," Luke said. I just shrug. "Do you, then?" He stayed quiet. "I do. I mean, everyone does, right?❞
A story in which a girl becomes infatuated with her neighbor.

❝ Luke sits beside me on my porch, continuing to smoke his cigarette. "Want a drag?" he offers and I quickly shake my head no. A chuckle falls from his lips and he shakes his head.
"So you really are a good girl, aren't you?" He questions in a sarcastic tone. His tone throws me off a bit, but I reply nonetheless "Yes sir, I am." I state simply. ❞
