A girl sits at a small, wooden table outside a café, a notepad rests in her palm as she twirls a pen around her finger.
Her long, curled, dark blonde hair is pulled up into a high bun and is secured with a long pencil right through the middle. Her eyes glow bright, green and she's smiling.
Staring at her from across is a boy in black, his eyes scan her while his hands draw her curves and her eyes onto a large, piece of canvas. He doesn't smile just traces over the lines already on the page while the girl smiles down at her blank page.
Then she looks up, and her smile grows.
~~~
Maya and Eli are strangers brought together out the front of a small café in Manhattan, they hardly talk but somehow they connect in a way only absolute strangers can.
When they leave the same thought appears in their mind.
"And I'll never see them again."

Becoming "Forever Yours"
Two girls. One heart. A tale of an unusual love. A story some of us need to hear. ~ "I like you. I don't care how uncomfortable that makes anybody. And I damn sure ain't letting anyone dictate if I can or can't talk to you." She brought my hands closer up, I could feel her cool breath against my knuckles. "Or if I can or can't be around you." "Why.. do you care so much?" I couldn't be angry anymore, not at her. Not with how she was looking at me right now. "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't." She pulled me into her, the smell of her leather jacket now more heady and thrilling as ever. She's going to kiss me.. She's.. she's really going to do it.. My eyes started to flutter close, head tilting in a fashion that allowed me to see what was coming just before I closed them completely. Awe shit. I backed away. "Turn around.." My chest tightened. "..And there's your reason."Complete

I clean up my workspace and go to the cabinet to get more flour, when I feel something warm against my back. It's her. Her stomach is pressed against my back and she whispers something in my ear but I can't hear her over the sound of my heartbeat blaring in my ears. Her warm breath carries the soft scent of mint and icing. Two of my favorite things. She sighs onto my neck, making me shiver. "W-what'd you say?" I stutter. "I said, 'those cupcakes are looking awfully delicious, doll.'" She mumbles into my ear. "Th-thank you. I tried my best." What are you doing?!? Focus! I shift over and walk away from her and towards the sink to wash up some more pans. I hear Kendra huff and she appears beside me. She picks up the sponge before I can so I glare at her. "Here, let me help you." She smirks. I stand with the towel and start drying the pans. When she's done washing, she lets out the sink water and I set the towel down and walk towards the big fridge. She gives a frustrated sigh and walks toward me, gripping my waist. My cheeks get bright red and I hold my breath. She's such a beautiful girl....I love the way her apron hugs her curves....the way her full lips look when she bites them...the way she touches me....Complete

My name is Maya, I'm seventeen and I've grown up with my brothers on the Atlantic Coast in the South West of France. Nothing seemed unusual last night when I went to bed.

All this would be easier if somebody was around to answer my questions... But all I have are these bright pink Post-it notes with instructions... So what choice do I have other than to follow them? Don't judge me! What would you do?! ------------------------------------------- But what happens when the instructions lead her to a group of boys with a sun-shaped tattoo on their left wrist just like hers, and an uncanny ability to read her mind?

"You said you'll always love me forever? How can you just lose love for me so easily?!", I yell tears bursting out of my eyes.
