Eliza Grayson Hayes, a name that hasn't been uttered in years is suddenly thrust back into her old life with the addition of new and old faces both having good and bad intentions. She's forced to face her past and find common ground with an old love and hopefully make space for a new one.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Did you mean to kiss me and leave me there?" her breathing came out as soft heavy pants, her eyes glistening with something the other couldn't quite place.
"I kissed you but I never meant to leave, you're the one who left I just didn't chase after you" her tone held finality while she bit her tongue effectively stopping her from saying everything else she wanted to. Hanging onto every word the girl let out a sigh of frustration.
"Why are you so confusing? I know I shouldn't do this but I can't stop myself." Her voice grew soft- "What are you doing to me?" She placed a soft warm hand on her cheek.
"I'm not doing anything maybe you just don't want to stop"
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Come on big boy, show me what you've got" her breathing was ragged and her chest was close to collapse. She wanted nothing more than to finally rest but she refused to let him win.
He let out a humorless laugh "You're gonna lose sweetheart I'm the best there is " he inched closer, gauging her reactions and biding his time knowing every word he said made her blood boil hotter and hotter.
In an attempt to calm her nerves she drew a slow shaky breath. If she was gonna beat him she needed to be calm and focused. That smile was getting wiped off his face one way or another but she would prefer it be her wiping it off with the floor mats.
"We'll see about that" - her tone clipped and unwavering despite her body going rigid from exhaustion "sweetheart"

Behind the Letters
It was supposed to be anonymous. Just some harmless, late-night messeges on a forum. No names. No photos. No real-life complications. She was GoldTrap-mysterious, sharp, and way too good with words. I was BlueInk-awkward, sarcastic, and definitely not looking for anything. But then she made me laugh. Then she made me think. Then... she made me feel things I really shouldn't be feeling for someone I've never met. I'm Quinn. Twenty-four. Screenwriter-in-training. Emotionally a little chaotic and basically there no reason an amazing woman like her would be falling for someone like me. I've played a lot of roles in my life. But never this one. ----------------------------------------------- Late at night, I started writing letters to a stranger on a private forum-just to feel something real. She calls herself BlueInk. She's young, clever, infuriatingly honest... and somehow, she sees right through me. She doesn't know I'm Juliette Delaney-Hollywood's favorite ice queen with a face on every magazine and a life that doesn't belong to me anymore. She doesn't know that when I type, my hands shake. That when I read her replies, I smile. That I'm craving her words more than I've ever craved the spotlight. And I don't know what will happen if she finds out who I am. Because if I tell her the truth, I might lose the one person who loves me for who I really am. Not the icon. Not the actress. Just... me. But if I don't? I'll never get to feel her say my name out loud.Complete

"What the hell did you do!?" I heard a feminine voice behind me. I groaned and turned around to meet a very angry face. I have never seen a girl this pissed before and honestly speaking, I am a little bit afraid. "She knew what she was getting into. Everyone knows I am player and I never stick to one girl." I shrugged and turned around to walk away. I didn't even take one step when I felt a firm hand on my t-shirt. She took a fist full of my shirt and turned me around so I was facing her. She then held my collar. Damn, she is almost the same height as me and if I would have been any normal guy, I would be terrified of her. "You don't treat girls like trash, asshole. She has feelings, she is not some toy that you got bored from after playing for a while. Apologize to her." She said through gritted teeth pointing towards Leah who was crying her eyes out. I noticed the crowd that started forming around us. I shrugged her hand away from my t-shirt and glared at her. "I will not apologize to anyone." I said slowly through gritted teeth. She is starting to piss me off. No one clashes me and no one stands against me. Even though I am new here, everyone knows that. I saw her eyes go blank and before I could duck, her fist made contact with my face and I felt sharp pain coursing through my nose. I held my nose tight and felt warm liquid flowing to my lips.
