Alexandrine Kingston: sassy, bold and protective - she's willing to fight anyone who tries to ever disrespect, disregard or otherwise bully those she loves or those who simply don't deserve their treatment. Her past left her scarred, those mentally put there by a figure that's supposed to be important leaving her insecure and unsure but with the help of certain people in her life she has managed to pick herself up - for their benefit. Striker Sterling: cold, distant and lonely- he's the 'badboy' that nobody wants to interact with, which he doesn't mind at all. His only friend has stuck but him as he had done for his friend - but even so somethings can never be said - somethings are easier to push away, out of the mind. His present breaks him down at night, feeling as though he has nobody to turn to. But then, as if it was supposed to have happened before this moment, they are thrown together constantly - one moment to the next, no way of escaping each others presence. But how much progress can they make when one fears not only the dark but what it can bring and one hides too many truths. *************** "I love you.." she shuddered out hating how she was not able to completely fight the self doubt that seemed to lerk over her. *************** If you like the typical 'your mine' type guys that are just bad and mean for the fun of it then I suggest you go else where. If you like the typical cute, innocent girl changing the bad boy then I suggest you go else where. Finally this story will contain pretty deep and heavy stuff ranging from body issues all the way to certain types of abuse/ suicidal thoughts, so if you are sensitive to topics such as these then I suggest you go else where. *************** Started: honestly cannot remember sometime around September 2019 (I think) Status: on going Completed: on going ***************** (27/12/2019) #1 in possiblelove #2 in boyscrytoo #10 in don'tjudgeabookbyitscover #14 in surprises
