It felt like fate was playing tricks on me, throwing me into a scene I never thought would become real. So that's just how he is with everyone-casual, effortless, like it's second nature for him to make someone feel special. He was just a gentleman-nothing else meant, nothing more. Everything was just a misunderstanding, nothing deeper than that. But how do I unsee the way his eyes softened when he looked at me? How do I forget the way his laugh seemed just a little different when I was the one making him smile? The late-night messages, the way he always seemed to be there, the way he made me feel like I was special-was it really just in my head? It hurts to want more when I have no right to, stuck in this casual thing where I can't ask for clarity, can't demand exclusivity, and can't even be upset-because we were never really something to begin with. This is unrequited love, after all. No one believes it's mutual except for me, the fool who keeps holding onto something that was never there. I keep reading into every glance, every touch, every lingering moment, convincing myself it means something more. But it doesn't. It never did. I should walk away. I know I should. But how do you walk away from something that was never really yours?

Fallen

~Completed~ 'I'm bold.' 'I'm ever confident.' 'I don't give a fuck about what anyone thinks and have to say about me.' 'I'm who I am.' 'I'm Stella Downer.' That's how it has always been, but what happens when things don't go exactly the way she planned... ~~~ He said nothing more, he had a sly smile on his face as he ran his hands through his hair. No doubt he was gorgeous. No doubt he's got good lips. No doubt he got any girl he wanted. No doubt I'm having crazy thoughts right now. "You're my boyfriend's bestfriend" I blurted. "It doesn't matter, I respect that but he's the only thing standing between 'us'" he replied, his voice still as calm as ever like nothing was weird... Like 'THIS' was normal. "'We' are not possible" I said mustering all the courage I could, trying not to melt under his gaze. "Does it mean you're considering it?" He asked. I wanted to reply but I couldn't, I couldn't just make out words right now. Was I perhaps considering it? What is wrong with me?! I just stood there, staring at him, his eyes piercing into mine like he was trying to read me. There was something about those dark eyes I couldn't quite comprehend. His presence was doing something to me! Everywhere was suddenly so quiet. Where is everyone?! Few seconds later, his face was inches away from mine, I just hope it wasn't what I was thinking. Every foward motion he took, I equally took a step backwards till I felt my back hit against one of the lockers. I could have pulled out. I could have pushed him away. I could have walked away. I could have hit him or slapped him away from me. But I did nothing... My body felt numb. The only thing I could feel were the weird sensation inside me. We were a breathe apart. I could already feel his body heat... •••••• Book #1 of the Downer Sisters Series. CAN BE READ AS A STAND ALONE BOOK!
