Bobbie swallowed with nerves and seemed panicked as she considered it, but a few seconds later she finally nodded, making my heart thrum with excitement. I moved closer trying not to seem too eager and I touched those pink plump lips with mine. Just a little at first, still a little unsure of what
{ Bobbie } Everyday I wake up knowing I'm a lucky girl. Very few people have what I have. Such good friends, such a good job, such a good family... I am grateful, even if sometimes I act like I hate the world. I really don't. I'm just not good at dealing with frustration. Like, at all. And even
"We love you, Mom," Vinny repeats. She bends down to hug them and kiss their heads, then she stands up again and I get up to hug her. My mom stopped growing at five foot three, so I stand four inches above her. "Are you going to get all jealous again?" She asks with an amused smile. I scoff. "

After being married for over ten years, my husband suddenly changed. He started saying he needed to chase true love, that since I’m not his Mate, he couldn’t stay with me and our daughter anymore.But what’s ironic is, he forgot that before we got married, he was just an orphan my father took in. Wi
Before I can keep reminiscing, a tornado comes to disrupt my peace. "Dad forgot me!" my daughter shouts all of a sudden, bursting into my room with a lunchbox on her hand. She's breathing hard, "I literally ran after his damn car, but he never even looked my way." "He was running late," I expla
We walk to the kitchen in awkward silence. That's unheard of, there is never anything awkward between us, but I can feel him being weird and I can smell his anxiety, so it’s infecting me. We sit down to eat together, but Farrow isn't eating like normal. He's a big man and spends most of the day

"Okay, I got it," she scoffed and finally sat down next to me, but her arms were crossed and she was pouting, "I really liked you.” "Why?" I asked, really curious. She frowned and looked at me, "Explain. With examples." "I don't know, dude, I guess you're cute," she said, shrugging like it's not
After that, we started saying hi to each other at school, then we would spend most of the afternoon together at my house, talking about everything. My friends were weirded out by my new friendship, but I didn't care. I liked Bobbie more than I liked any of them anyway. Talking to her was like a brea
{ Henry } There was a Before Bobbie and an After Bobbie in my life. Before her, life was boring. Dull. Bland. Lame. There just wasn't much going on. I had my mom, my dad and my brothers and I had a few okay friends, but no one significant. Then one day I started really noticing Bobbie and I coul
"I can already tell who's going to be the next pain in my ass," Farrow murmurs, lifting a hand to grab Vinny and pull him to his chest as well. Then he kisses Leo’s head, "And who's my good boy." "Don't play favorites," I scold him, but I'm smiling. He's right, though. And he's so cute when he's t
