Alessandra Gracewell was perfectly happy- er- content... fine? She was perfectly fine. Truly. She didn't see the point of falling in love, her only representation being her cold parents that have less chemistry then two iguanas.
JJ Maybank didn't understand the feelings part of relationships. Hooking up? Count him in. Falling in love? Be realistic. He was perfectly fine living freely with his friends. He didn't need anyone other than the pogues that he considered family.
Especially not Alessandra Goodwell, the kookiest kook of all the kooks.
He did, however, need money. He's not entirely sure how he snagged the job of babysitting one of the richest families on the islands five year old daughter, but he claims it was his irresistible charm.
The two fall into a pattern, blissfully ignoring eachother as he babysits her sister and she does... whatever it is one does at a three story mansion. It's fine, comfortable even.
Then again, being polite can't hurt, right? Just having small talks then and there was no big deal, right?
It's not like they'd start to grow on eachother. No.
Never. That would be insane, laughable, wouldn't it?
Then again, even the most unrealistic possibilities sometimes occur.
I mean, how else did people win the lottery?
❝I've been falling every day
since I first met you.❞
stolen glances,
hushed whispers,
teasing breaths,
lingering touches.
