"Finally all the dumbass' left," Elijah says, wiping the sweat from his brow. He looks beautiful right now. The moonlight is shining on his face, making his hazel eyes look even more attractive. He looks down at me and smiles. "Then why are you still here?" I ask. Serene Draden has been taught that love is a bad thing-an illusion- from a young age. Her father said he loved her and her mom- so why did he leave? Her brother said he loved her and her mom- so why did he overdose? Her ex-boyfriend said he loved her- so why does he want her dead? Because love is a terrible thing, or at least that is what Serene thinks caused those problems. Elijah Haine doesn't believe in love, he believes in one night flings with no strings attached. It's not that he was never taught love, he just thought it was to much work. So what happens when his friends bet that he can't make Serene Draden fall in love with him? Love, that's what happens.
