Wretched Roses √
She gazed into her dark brown eyes with lust and pain. A rose as red as her tainted lips she'd put behind her ear, still holding it there, never wanting to let go. She put her forehead against hers as she whispered "You're just like a rose, beautiful but when you come too close you sting, not wanting others to see the pain behind your beauty. But you know what, I'm not scared, I won't give up on you no matter how much you make me bleed." She looked deep in thought, biting her lip and raising one of her eyebrows, and finally, she pressed her tainted lips against hers, letting their lips collide. They knew, that now, they would forever crave each others touch, they were in too deep. They'd fallen too hard. Never did they expect that their story wouldn't end there, and that years later they would be telling this exact story to none other than their own kids.

And yet, I did Because no matter how hard I tried, destiny kept pulling us back together And no matter how many times his thorns drew blood, I realized I'd rather bleed holding his rose . . . than watch it fade from my hands Isn't that what love is? Bleeding for the rose, just to see it bloom?
Just the Right Amount
Violet Jones grew up under the heavy hand of her father's abuse. Survival became second nature, her only purpose to shield her younger brother from the same fate. Silence was her armor. Shadows, her refuge. At Thornwall Academy, she doesn't talk, doesn't seek friends, doesn't give anyone the chance to get close. Her classmates have another name for her: the witch. A girl who drifts through the halls untouchable, unreadable, and wrapped in rumors darker than the truth she hides. And then she meets Daniel West. Hockey star. Joker. Flirt. Best friend to the captain. The boy with the grin always ready, the line always waiting, the laughter everyone depends on. Violet is nothing like the people Daniel is surrounded by. While everyone else fights to be seen, she chooses to disappear. While people chase attention, she walks away from it. In a world where everyone wants something from him, she wants nothing at all. And that's what pulls him in. The more he notices her, the harder it is to stop. Not because she's quiet-but because she's different. Because she carries herself like she knows more about pain than anyone should. Because Daniel can't shake the feeling that if he doesn't try to understand her, no one ever will. But Violet's world isn't made for saving. It's built for surviving. And letting him close might be the most dangerous choice she's ever made.
