Unconditionally

I'm a little unsteady ( Evansson )
Falling for your best friend is never easy, especially when said friend is also your married best friend. 2am on a Monday morning, that's when his life changed. That's when he realized that maybe some things or some people aren't so out of our reach as he thought. She was that type of girl, the one that would often make mad, the one that had the power to change his day just by looking at him in a certain way. The one that was complicated, complex, stubborn, who had little to no patience at all and who often got him in trouble. But also the one he couldn't live without. "That's the way God made her. Sunshine mixed with. A little hurricane." Disclaimer: I mean no offense to Scarlett, or her family. This story is for entertainment purposes only. Also not the best writer, in fact this is my first fanfic. So, I hope you enjoy it.Complete
