Annabeth and Mackenzie have known each other since they were nine-years-old. He was the older brother of one of Annabeth's best friends, and also her first crush. However, as time went by, they grew each year more different and more opposite of each other, with Annabeth starting to wonder how she even liked him in the first place. Still, somehow he'd always get under her skin, and make her question everything. It's only on Annabeth's 18th birthday that things take a turn, even though she doesn't know if they are for better or for worse.

It was gentle and soft, something I never expected from a guy like him. He moved his right hand from my cheek to my waist, tugging me against him, and molded our bodies together. A wave of electricity went down to my core when he licked my lips. "Open your mouth, Bella." His commanding husky voice against my lips jolted my heart, and I followed his order like a slave. With no control, a moan erupted from my throat as his tongue met mine. It was barely audible, but I knew he heard it when he smiled against my lips. He swept my hair from my face to my back and gathered them in his fist. He tugged my head back, deepening the kiss, and my heart thrashed in my chest. At that moment, I didn't need drugs to know what being high felt like because his lips were enough to send me on nine clouds. Just once and I was addicted to it.
