It made me feel unimportant." I sigh and bite my lip. "I never wanted you to feel that way. I just didn't know what else to do," I say, trying to explain myself. "Yes, you did. You just didn't give a fuck," she says, getting up and walking away. I sigh and lean against the wall. What do I do now? - Will have smut, drugs and alcohol, and assault warnings.

All I Know
Sometimes love is more about the learning curves than the fairytale "Happily Ever After". Because often the world shows us how unkind it can be, how the notion of "good things happen to bad people' actually breathes true. Good people are often the ones with the most scars and disappointments but even with those battle wounds, they are still willing to pursue love. Sometimes it is the people that have been hurt the most, who love the hardest and are intentional in their love. So as hard and painful as these experiences are, these are the chapters that build you, remove the rose-colored glasses from your eyes, and present you with reality... you can choose to harden or to soften to the standards of this world. Follow David and Amelia on their journey, in the most unconventional of places and it changes the way they view the world forever. All events in this book are fictional. Some instances such as events and characters may be based on real life but nothing is 100% factual.
