Matthew was not the kind of guy to have a lot of friends. In fact he wasn't the kind of guy who had any friends at all. With bad experiences and old fears he's always kept to himself. It was quiet and, admittedly lonely.
But friends are hard to find. It's not like they just show up one day and BAM! Your friends now! Or so Matthew thought, until Christian did just that.
A tale of love, awkward flirting, and friendship.
Quick warning: There are a few slurs sprinkled in here so please be careful if that is something that affects you. Thanks!!
(Hey you guys, this is my first story ever that I've been brave enough to share with, well anyone, so I hope you like it and please be gentle.)

Understanding a Storm
I despise socializing with a passion. It's a fact: I'm terrible at it. Like the useless person I am with everything else except for academics. It makes me wonder if there was ever such a time when I didn't suck at it so badly. Oh yeah, the time when I haven't met my good old friend, anxiety. Along with it's most honorable sidekick, depression. I hate talking- more than necessary. I can't stand being touched- even if it's just a friendly hug. I, Aisha Storm, in general, don't like people. Years have passed and I'm doing just fine. Alone. That's what I was. Until some guy who I will never admit I found attractive showed up in my life. His smile sends pleasant chills down my spine. The ocean blue color of his eyes capture my attention. His muscular frame emit power, yet he's so gentle I find myself caving into his touch. Most of all, he's capable of stripping the wall I brought up to shun me from civilization with little to no effort. ☆☆☆ Second Book from the Obsession series ☆☆☆ (As always, you are not required to read my other books to prepare yourself for this one. It can be read as it's own. And don't be an asshole who steals my ideas. Love you all <3)Complete

Green corner
1. Jessica's first video call with her boyfriend didn't show him on screen. Instead, it was his roommate-Matthew. The man's eyes were dark, his eyelids thin, a faint double fold. His features were flawless, so perfect that even a close-up revealed not a single blemish. Jessica quickly covered herself, wearing barely a scrap of clothing, and forced a calm tone. "Did you pick up the wrong phone?" "No." Matthew's voice was cool, detached. "This is my WhatsApp." Jessica cut the call, only to realize his profile picture and even his display name were identical to her boyfriend's. She had assumed their paths would never cross again. Until that night. By sheer accident, she found herself pressed against him, his hands gripping her waist, her body trembling under him. His heavy breaths filled her ears. And when he bent down and claimed her earlobe with his lips, she realized just how searing his kisses could be. 2. At J University, Matthew was untouchable-a crown jewel of the campus, aloof and proud, adored by countless girls. No one would ever connect him to Jessica, his roommate's girlfriend. Until one day, someone saw them hand in hand by the lake. Rumors flew: "No picture, no truth. Impossible!" Soon after, someone posted a photo: behind the half-open car window, Jessica was draped in a black coat, her slender waist gripped firmly by a large hand, Matthew's lips attacking hers with fierce, focused intensity-biting, claiming, consuming. 3. On the first day of college, Matthew watched as his roommate arrived, hand-in-hand with a woman, a beaming smile on his face. "Matthew, this is my girlfriend. Isn't she beautiful?" Matthew's gaze landed on the shy Jessica. Slowly, deliberately, he said, "Beautiful." No one could tell the storm raging beneath his calm exterior. Every second, his jealousy clawed higher. Every second, he was losing himself to it.
