Ramona Winters was more than excited to start working at the local bookstore, after all her company usually consisted of a warm cup of tea in her favorite mug, her fuzzy blanket and whatever book had caught her interest. It wasn't that she didn't have friends, it was just that sometimes all she needed was some time alone to wander in the world of fiction, so getting the part time position they'd been looking to fill was a dream come true. Obviously the job came with a few perks, some she knew and some that came barreling around the corner and into her life without warning. Meet Elijah Walker; a sarcastic and salty onion with layers who didn't fail to scare the living daylights out of Ramona the moment he crashed through her door. Yeah...Senior year was definitely going to be interesting...

Unconditionally
"What I was suppose to do? You left me, you went to Arizona." I shout at him as he storms away. "Wait for me." He shouts and I go mute. Did he really just say that?
