There was a time I promised a man that I admired that when the timing in my journey of growth was right, I would find the courage to fulfill my dream of writing a book. I told this man how safe it made me feel to simply curl up in my pajamas in my soft, fluffy chair. Drink and snacks in hand, ready to confidently pour out the memories and words that consume me. We made prolonged eye contact, his expression peaked in interest as if he were studying me. Eyes are the window to the soul, I felt naked and vulnerable. He finally asked me if this was what I really wanted, I smiled and said yes. "You need to do whatever it takes to make you happy and fuel the fire I just saw. You need to embrace who you are. You are beautiful, and you deserve much more than this. Work for it. If you just let me in, I could help you, C. I'll do whatever it takes to see you in your true essence, raw without question, and being the girl that I love so much. I will do whatever it takes to always be here for you. It's sad seeing you suffer, C. One day, I'll have to leave because you keep pushing me out. Trust me. I want you to achieve everything you set your big heart to. Listen to me, sweetheart. You won't feel like this forever, I know your pain, and I've been in your shoes. There's another side to this, and you can have it whenever you decide to love yourself first without question. You're going to tell your story one day, and I can't wait to hear about it." Here's to a good start, Boston. Here's to us.

Lilah

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)
