Just when Ava begins to establish attachments believing she has found a renewed sense of purpose; her mental health and past start to haunt her causing her world to come crashing down. Whilst Ms.Jones is trying to find her identity in modern-day society it appears she can't control the rabbit hole full of regret and repercussions she finds herself sporadically spiraling down.

"I am so fucking tired of you walking away from me" Oryon growled menacingly into my ear and picked me up with a steely arm around my waist, pulling me into the alleyway to cross into the back parking lot. Immediately, I dug my nails into his wrists to try and get him off me, "Oryon! I'm serious, get the fuck off me" He twisted me around and pinned me against the brick wall, the rainy wall coated my back in wetness. Oryon spread my legs apart and made me put them around his waist. "Ugh, stop!" I begged but he ignited my senses, silencing me with a brutal kiss to my mouth. I resisted, pushing at his chest but his tongue fought with mine and won. He won, he won, I fell.

"Wanted to be bold." I blush while I avoid eye contact. "Devin needed to borrow clothes for gym." I stare at my bare legs. "I should've told her no." He shrugs, biting into his sub. "Not a fan of exposing the body." I nibble on my burrito. "I just don't want anyone to get the wrong idea." I tuck my hair behind my ear. "That you're easy." My face reddens as I look at him in the corner of my eyes. After a few moments, I nod. He sighs. "The only thing that makes a girl easy is if she lets every and any guy inside." He runs his fingers through his hair. "Clothes or attitude has nothing to do with it." I trace a circle on my thigh. "And a guy that believes otherwise is either a dick or a rapist." I smile. "Avery." "Ava." "Your brain works in wonderful ways." I get more comfortable and lean on his shoulder. "So you've said." I giggle. "I'm glad to share the same name as you." ~ A girl, a perfectionist, named Avery Jones has been in love with her childhood friend's brother for as long as she can remember. He's never noticed her, though, he doesn't really notice anyone. He's sort of an insouciant philanderer. They couldn't be any different, the only thing that connects them is their names. Oh, by the way, his name is also Avery Jones; no relation. As crazy as it might sound, it's true. Anyway, it isn't until she becomes his mentor that he finally sees her. But will this new circumstance spark a connection or show just how different they are?
