He pulled back, looking deeply into my eyes, then scanning my face as if to memorise it. Lifting a hand, he tucked a stray bit of dusty hair behind my ear, his fingers lingering down the base of my throat. "We are all just flesh and bone, Hazel. It will heal. I will heal." "What about up in here," I tapped my stained fingers on his shaggy hair, leaving my hand snagged in his thick locks, "What about the words that are said, the crushing, brittle tone that he uses, recalling every painful weakness you have. Jacob, that kind of stuff doesn't just heal overnight." He held the wrist of my hand resting in his hair, circling small half moons on the warm skin. "That is why I have you, Hazel Evans. You cleanse my soul from that evil piece of shit." Our mouths collided in a bang of sparking energy, entwinning in the heat of our passions.

"Oh," he said, as my back hit the wooden wall. Damn it, of course. With nowhere to go, his arms locked me in between him and the wall. He stared down at me as he said, "So you're trying to piss me off?" His lips were surprisingly close to mine. No guy would ever be this close to me in real life, let alone me being able to handle it; I would've been so timid and afraid. But this was the dream world. I could speak and be as brave as I wanted to. "Yeah, I am," I said. "What are you gonna do about it?" He paused as his eyes looked between the two of mine. Then, he smirked and swiftly closed the gap between our lips. ~~ In a small town in New York, Hazel is your average quiet type. In a school full of clichés, she falls perfectly under the category of "nerd" and has her own little nerdy group of people she loves to hang around. They respect the fact that she's non-verbal. The thing that plagues her is her ability to go through anybody's and everybody's dreams which has a nasty side effect--she lost her ability to speak in the real world. This is not something she can control, nor something that's necessarily dangerous. It just happens. One second she's in darkness, the next second she happens to be in someone's dream. But, when she stumbles into a dream of a guy she never knew existed in her grade of 500 students, albeit his popular status, both her worlds get flipped upside down.
