fool me twice

"I don't know what to tell you, it's your fault for catching feelings." He states, so harshly. And I thought I was the mean one.

"It's your fault for leading me on." I spit, pulling the covers to hide my body.

"And how did I do that?" He raises his voice.

I use the breathing techniques I learned from anger management to calm me down.

"By telling me that I'm the most gorgeous girl you've ever seen? By telling me that you enjoy my company?" I say, rushed. "Oh and I don't know, maybe by having sex with me!"

"Sex is sex. A body is just a body. Get over it." He responds.

"Oh fuck you. And for your info, I didn't only catch feelings but I fell in love with you, asshole."

"Is there any way I can make it up to you?" He asks, he looks sincere. Like genuinely sincere.

"No. There's no way in hell that I'm going to let you fool me twice."

Grace Iris has always had her guard up. Until Noah came. Noah Everett.

What started off as tutoring sessions ends up as hookups. Everything seems fine until the three words slip out.

Now everything's fucked. Or more specifically Noah is.

Noah knows he messed up. Big time.

Five years later, they end up living in the same apartment complex.

Everything has changed. Grace has accomplished most of her dreams. The only dream that isn't completed is how she isn't marrying the love of her life.

Noah knows this, Grace knows it but she won't do anything to change it.

Noah is doing everything he can to win Grace back.

The only thing keeping Grace back is the fact that she doesn't want to get her heart broken again.

How will she know if Noah won't fool her twice?
