The Boy Next Door
His faint laugh stopped me in my tracks, my body turning sightly to look at him again. "That was cute. Really, I loved it, but you know I can't just stay away." He said while using air quotations for the last part of his sentence. My narrowed eyes continued to shoot daggers at him, "and why is that, Grayson? Huh?" I asked in a mocking tone. He rubbed along his jaw while pulling in on his bottom lip, his head lightly shaking from side to side. "What?" I said louder, my patience long gone. "I live right next door," he deadpanned, "I'm not going anywhere. As far as I'm concerned we're gonna be seeing each other practically every day, so this whole thing about staying away just isn't going to work for you. I don't let things I love go so easily." A chill went down my spine as I watched him walk up the stairs of his porch, "sweet dreams, Cam." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Eighteen year old, Cameron Woods, is ready to start her senior year alongside her friends and boyfriend, Damon Valero.

DAMON He's magnetic and mercurial, with a hare trigger temper and hoards of friends. People orbit him like he's the sun. ANNIE She's shy and reserved, and would much rather spend time with her knitting needles than with other people. They couldn't be more different, but Damon and Annie have been best friends since they were kids. She's the only person who can get through to him when he's in one of his infamous tempers, and he's one of the very few people in the world with whom she can be herself. But they're just friends. Best friends, but still just friends - that's it, nothing more. Yeah, sure, Damon's strikingly attractive and would do anything for the few people he loves, but he's also moody and intense and...weirdly possessive of her. Then, Damon does something that leaves Annie feeling hurt and betrayed, and for the first time ever she wonders if it's time to put her friendship with Damon in her rearview mirror. But Damon won't let Annie go that easily. Stubborn and determined, he'll do whatever it takes to claw his way back into Annie's good books. And this time, he's not stopping at best friends, because he wants more. Much more. And Damon always gets what he wants. ───── Chapters uploaded every week
