Taming Of The Bitch

"Your beautiful. Really beautiful."

"Thats a pointless comment seeming as though you haven't even met me."

"But I'm looking at you now. Your beautiful."

"Compared to?"

He goes to speak, but she beats him to it. "You know, that's so biased of you. I might be a really ugly person deep down. I might be the worst person you'll ever meet."

He scoffs. "That option is ruled out, because I think I already like you."

She shrugs. "Also very biased of you to say, we haven't even met properly."

"Well, let's meet. I'm Liam, but you can call me Biased."

She bites back a smile bubbling below the surface. "I'm Violet, but you can call me The Worst Person You'll Ever Meet."

"Well, Worst Person I'll Ever Meet, care to walk with me? I think you'll find I'm not as Biased as you may think."

She shrugs again. "Well, sorry Biased But Not Really Biased, but I really am The Worst Person You'll Ever Meet."

He counters, "I like bad people."

"Cheesy."

Violet is hesitant to open up to him.

Life doesn't slow down for Violet, and as she tries to keep up with her life, while also bearing the loss of her Mum, she keeps failing and having to pick herself up.

If only Violet could let Luke in, he could hold her up, until she is able to release the pain and hold herself up...
