Blurring Lines/ coming soon

Bambi is sharp-tongued, strong-willed, and unapologetically beautiful. She knows who she is-and she refuses to make herself smaller to make anyone else comfortable.

There's only one problem.

Isaiah Jones.

Cocky. Arrogant. Sarcastic. Infuriating.
And worst of all-her brother Forrest's best friend.

When Forrest makes Isaiah promise to watch over her, it feels less like protection and more like a cage. Because Bambi doesn't just hate Isaiah-she hates the way he watches. The way his eyes linger. The way he notices everything.

It drags her back to middle school.
To the comments.
The stares.
The feeling of being studied like something that didn't belong to her anymore.

Bambi learned how to survive by being sharp first.
Isaiah learned how to survive by acting like he didn't care.

She hides behind sass.
He hides behind arrogance.

They're sworn enemies by default-forced into each other's orbit, fueled by resentment, tension, and everything they refuse to admit out loud.

But when hatred starts to blur into something else-something dangerous, protective, and impossible to ignore-they're both faced with the same question:

What happens when the person you can't stand is the only one who actually sees you?

"don't tempt me trouble, or i wont be gentle."
