Unrequited
"Why do you allow me back into your life? You know I'm only going to push you away again," he said with all honestly, not to hurt her, but because he knew how he behaved with her. And a part of him doubted that he would change. Even for her. "Because one day, you are going to realize what we have, and you won't push me away," she answered. It's funny how life can be so perfect one moment, and so awful the next. Other people are usually the cause of this back and forth, but what if it was just one person? One who couldn't love themselves, so they were incapable of loving others? John and Arianna have known each other since they were young. Friends, lovers, enemies: they have been through it all. They go through years of ups and downs, the losses, the gains, the middle ground as they try to find their way. Find their life. Will they be together? Or will circumstances keep tearing them apart? Only time will tell if their love will remain... Unrequited.Complete
