A young Darius knew he had a crush on his neighbour Bianca, the day he moved across the street.
 
One summer night, after he graduated from High School and she from University, an impromptu basketball game sparked a connection between them.

With Darius moving away for school, and Bianca's corporate job in the city, their friendship thinned out until a series of events put them both in moments of vulnerability and reignited the childhood crush.

But Darius waited too long to tell Bianca how he feels, and now she is about to take the next step with her boyfriend.

Follow Darius and Bianca as they weave through life's unexpected turns. Will they be honest with each other? With themselves?

This is a story about falling in love and trusting the timing of your life.

Excerpt:
Bianca ordered one scoop of Mint Chip and Darius ordered two scoops of Birthday Cake.

"Really? Are you five years old?" Bianca teased.

"Don't knock it until you try it," Darius challenged with a smirk.

The butterflies in Bianca's stomach had not settled and his playfulness wasn't helping. Between the guilt of lying to Jeremy and trying to find out what Elena was referring to a couple days ago about Darius' behaviour, her anxiety was agonizing. The only thing she was certain about was that she wanted to be there. 

The butterflies were more than just nerves. She was crushing.

Her life had been mostly happy other than when her best friend moved away when she was 10. It took her years to get over that loss. Then several years later, tragedy struck when her father passed away suddenly and Kendall was forced to move with her mom closer to Chicago where she could find a job to support the two of them. Little does Kendall know that she is in for the surprise of a lifetime. From the book.... As he catches up to me, he grabs my arm swings me around and with one swift movement he ushers me into a nearby empty classroom with the lights off. He cages me in against the wall. His close proximity is making me dizzy and my mind is thinking very dirty thoughts. Wait no. I can't think like that anymore. "Kendall." He says hungrily. "You are mine and only mine. You drive me wild and no one else can have you." He says as he attacks my lips. It feels so amazing I can't help but kiss him back. I run my hands through his beautiful hair and he groans into the kiss. Man I don't want this to ever end. I feel drunk on him. I don't think I can let him go. He stops suddenly to finish his thoughts. "No one can make you feel like this. Or kiss you here...." He says as he kisses down my neck. I moan and he smirks pulling his face impossibly close to mine. "..or touch you." He says as he takes his hand and brushes it lightly down my arm and he snakes it back around my back pulling me even closer if that is possible. He finally stops at my ass which he squeezes delightfully and I hum in response. Warning: Contains graphic sexual content. Read at your own discretion. You will not be warned ahead of time.

I know. by EmelySwift

10 years. 10 years of hating Griffin Taylor. Luckily for me, he lives hundreds of miles away and I very rarely have to handle the knowledge he's in town for his 48 hour visits. Some supposed best friend he turned out to be. Mum and dad would have screamed at him for hours for missing the things he did. Though, Griffin Taylor never did care about other people's feelings. I always thought I wasn't apart of that rule. That I was different to him. His best friend. His rock. No call. No text, no message through his mum or his brother. Nothing. Mine and Piper's world collapsed from under us. Total strangers on the outskirts of town showed their love and support. But Griffin? He showed up 18 months later with barely a word before taking another life altering phone call. Ass. Now, 6 years after I last had the pleasure of being in his almighty presence, Piper made the overwhelming, stupid decision to invite him to her wedding. It's fine. He'll be here for his usual 48 hours and I'll find a million things to keep me out of his way so I'll barely see him. It's fine. Not a problem. I can handle it. Piper wants him here, Piper wants her family here and I guess, with no one else, the Taylor's are family. For Piper I'll keep my thoughts to myself, I'll smile and I'll be the good Christian I am. But as far as I care, Griffin Taylor can rot. In. Hell.
