Tears started to swell in my eyes so I looked back down at my lap, "It's okay..."
I was quickly cut off when his other hand reached up towards my face. He grabbed my chin softly before forcing me to look back up at him.
"Don't bullshit me Angel. It's not okay, and it's okay to not be okay either."
After really dissecting his words I couldn't hold back any longer. The tears started to uncontrollably stream down my face.
Without another word he slides over closer to me and pulls me into the side of his chest, holding me tightly.
Emery Miller, a 19 year old aspiring photographer moves to Outer Banks North Carolina a year after her older sister, Leah goes missing.
Emery doesn't expect much out of life, at least not anymore. Not since she's been let down by every person who has ever made a promise to her.
She keeps her head down, doesn't step on anyone's toes, doesn't rely on anyone & that's how she likes it. She lives a simple life in the shadows with her nose buried deep in books & her camera strap always over her neck just in case.
That was until a certain mysterious musician who lives next door takes an interest to her.
Luca St. James is everything Emery tries to stay away from. The popularity, the looks, the money, the devilish personality that keeps her on her toes. The 21 year old lead singer has it all. No matter how infuriating he is, she just can't seem to stay away from him & he can't seem to stay away either.
No matter how hard he tries.

I would bet none of you have ever had that dream summer that all of us want.... that summer where you meet a boy on the beach and go surfing even though you don't know how to surf. That summer where you look him in the eyes while he runs his fingers through your hair. That summer where you skateboard along empty streets at sunset and accidentally steal candy from a grocery store. Well, I didn't get that, but I got pretty close to it. Because for the summer I went to an island in the middle of nowhere so my dad could start up a new one of his businesses in his chain of stores. I went to the beach. And I met Royce... Royce was two years older than me and had the prettiest purplish eyes and blonde hair. He was the most charismatic person I'd ever met. Then shortly after me and Royce's first appearance we met Jack and Koa. It was amazing and I loved every second of it, until I realized that I had fallen for Royce. And he seemed to fall for me too! Until another girl came into the mix 𖣔 "Do you hate me or not Royce?" "I wish I never fucking spoke to you because god I hate you so fucking much for making me love you! It's your fucking fault! Fuck you!" "And do you love her?!" "Way more than I will ever love you." #5 in unrequited 12-3-2020 #2 in tearjerker 3-14-2021 #8 in unrequitedlove 5-15-2021Complete
The Devil is Marvelous
"Ava, you have to be quiet! They'll hear you-" Tears started to spill from my eyes, blending in with the rain that dripped down my face. I shouldn't have come here. The last time I followed someone I made accidentally noise and got them killed. I had to get away from Jaxon. I turned on my heel, ready to run to, but Jaxon grabbed my wrist. "Let go" I choked, "I have to leave. You're in danger-" The next thing I knew, his lips crashed onto mine. His arms wrapped around my body, pulling tightly to his chest. "Stop it" I sobbed, unable to control my trembling. "Why are you doing this? Let me go-" "I had to get you quiet" he murmured. "Please Ava. You have to try to calm down. I understand you're scared right now, but you have to trust me. We're going to get home safely. Stay with me a few more minutes, and then we'll get the f*ck out of here. I promise." -- A little about Ava: She has made the long move from Detroit, Michigan to California to escape her gruesome past.
