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. "
“Okay, okay, we should sit down again before the pizza gets even colder,” my mom murmurs, so we all return to the table, but my dad can’t stop smiling and being all over her, kissing her hand and looking at her like she’s his whole world, completely forgetting about the pizza. And us. “I love you
"Oh, Bob, I really miss having you home," he sighs, tightening his hold on me, "But I guess I had to let go of you. Even if I didn’t want to.” "Yeah, but we live ten minutes away from each other and I see you almost every day, so I don't think this is really like... a big deal," I murmur, but he's
"Alright, alright, sorry," Garrett lifts his hands in rendition, "I just was certain you guys were a thing because of something Harrison said... Anyway, I guess we can sleep together, bro, like when we were kids. Does Bobbie know that? We shared a room our whole lives and then we shared a bed for a
"I'm going to cook something, come help me," Henry says as he comes back, making me look up from my phone. I nod and get up to follow him to the kitchen, "I'm feeling pasta, you want some?” "Yes, something cheesy," I say, opening the fridge to start taking stuff out. Henry is the chef in this hous
I laugh, that sounds more like him. So different to me, even to this day. “Because who needs love, right?” I smirk at him. Henry shrugs. “What even is love and why do people think a spouse the only source of it?” He asks. Of course, always with his mental gymnastics, “You give me love. My parent
It takes me two seconds to move, but I get up and walk to him. He looks so handsome right now, wearing a crisp white button shirt with black dress pants and his hair styled the way I told him I liked it. And the way he's carrying those roses... yeah, I'd like a picture too. Good luck my mom is being
"Well, you fucked up by giving it to me so early," I laugh, "Even if we're together, I'll hide it for a while. I just don't want people all in our business asking why I let a boy mark me without a ring on my finger like a dirty whore." "Oh, shut up," he says, rolling his eyes and chuckling, "As if
I blink, still unable to believe this is even happening. “That means putting a pause on you being ‘single’,” he continues after a few seconds, “I know I haven’t earned any rights to you, what I’m asking for is the fair chance to get those rights. And if possible, clear instructions from time to ti
I sigh as I look at him, still nervous. "So I ruined your control when I figured out I was in love with you," I say. Henry takes a deep breath and nods, "But we're not kids anymore, Henry. So why did you reject me? I just don't... I don't think you 'liking me' is enough. What I feel for you goes b
I am listening. I mean, I'm still too confused to do anything other than listen. Henry opens his mouth but doesn't get a chance to say anything because my friends are trying to come back inside. "I said fuck off," he repeats, reaching to lock the door, "Go to your stupid party or whatever, then yo
"I noticed… hell, I asked for it," I admit, sighing and going to my closet to grab something. They follow me, demanding to know, "I asked him to pretend the last month didn't happen. I realized I liked my life more before, with the way we were. I just have to... slowly fall in love with another man.
Only ten minutes later, Bobbie comes into the kitchen and she starts helping me. We don't say anything about the bathroom situation. "Mags and Tams are sleeping over tomorrow," she lets me know as I'm driving to uni. I try to hide my annoyance, unsuccessfully, "They despise you too, now more than
Now I know how is like to touch her, to kiss her and fuck her for real, not as a dumb kid. Now my wolf is involved. Now I know what I'm missing and I want it back. ➿➿➿➿ For two days, we go back one month ago before the clusterfuck of feelings. We go to school, we go to work, we hang out with
"You haven't been doing things right, Henry. And I'm disappointed in you. If you love her... show her. Say it. It won't make you less of a man or whatever you think. She needs to hear it and see it, do you get that? It's not enough to just feel it, speak up." Damn. I gulp and nod. "Exactly what
