'People expect greatness from the world. They thrived strong and youthfully through the greens on the planet, and happiness was as far as the eye could see.." He thumbed the smooth pages of the photo album longingly, as if lost in the memory of something he had never known. He had seemed to forget Jay was even there. "Christopher?" Her voice raised in a curious concern as the wonder faded from his grey eyes, and he was suddenly back in the reality he lived in. A soft laugh escaped his lips as he ran his hands through his messy blonde hair. "Sorry, Jay.. Just lost in thought I guess.. did you say something?" Jay's lips curled up slightly. "Oh, nothing." Silence fell across the pair, with only the sound of nature and the soft strain of the rope holding the tire swing and Jay to the tall tree. Minutes passed before Jay finally spoke, a bit of humor in her voice. "I still think you just my imagination." Chris looked up from his picture album in slight surprise. "And whys that?" Jay leaned back in the tire swing and stared at the quickly fading sunset. The orange and red colors seemed to reflect off of her pail face. "I'm the only human on this planet, its been that way for twenty years. Why would that suddenly change? I know what this is." Her smile grew weaker as her gaze fell to her old dirty converse. "I was so lonely, so miserable after the vanishing, my brain created the one thing I truly long for." Christopher stayed silent as he watched the sad girls face. He took in every detail, every line, every crevice of this lone woman. "What do you long for, Jay?" "I long for you."

She's heart-meltingly sweet. He's deliciously sinful. Greyson Decker is your typical jock; God in the bedroom, king on the field. His brooding glare and shredded body terrifies as much as it turns on, and that gets him as much attention with women as it does with NFL recruits. Synamie Blake is not your typical cheerleader. Forced to be hardened by her past, she is tough and smart; two things that don't get you far in the college social scene. When their worlds collide, Greyson becomes a protective friend who ups her social rank and pulls her into his world of parties, great friends, better teammates and something much, much dirtier. I mean, her name does rhyme with sin... Syn hated the idea of being under Greyson's daunting wing, especially right after escaping the claws of her past, but he is nothing like his bad boy reputation perceived. He rips her from her nightmares, she seeps into his soul, and they become so hooked, not even the entire span of a football field could keep their burning passion in check. But their path to becoming friends to lovers might be harsher than the fire between them. *** He looks irate, and for some reason, that makes me burst into hysterics. "Do you get enjoyment from my pain, you demon child?" That only makes me laugh harder. "You're a grumpy old man," I inform him. I'm grinning up at him, and I'm glad he has my arms pinned to my sides because I want to pull his lips into a smile, and right now he'd probably bite my fingers off if I did that. And then he says, with a dark glare and a deep scowl, the sweetest words I have ever heard. "Fine. If I have to go infertile for you to smile at me like that, then so be it." And that's when I knew, in this weird, hazy, drunken moment, that Greyson Decker was undoubtedly the best thing that has ever happened to me. *** Cover model: Chase Mattson
