~Haven's POV~
Being with Tristian was one of the best feelings in the world. Nothing compared to it. Not singing in the church choir, or ushering, or praise dancing. He made me feel alive.
I loved the way he touched me and kissed me and never pressured me or made me feel bad about my sexual inexperience. He'd been exactly what I needed after that jerk, Gabe.
Tristian was more than I deserved. I could tell he appreciated me and would never hurt me. That didn't mean I was giving into him so easily. The fact that my friends, my parents, and Heath would never approve of me being with him worried me more than I'd like to admit to Tristian. Right now sneaking around is fun and hot, but what if I fell in love with him? We can't sneak around forever.
How would I be able to convince
~Haven's POV~ "Weed?!" I exclaimed. "I didn't know you did that…" "I didn't want you to. I didn't know how you'd feel about it. It helps me distress." Tristian explained. "Oh. Do you have it because we fought?" "No, I already had it. But I was going to smoke it because we fought." I didn't say anything. "Do you want to smoke?" He asked. "Um…I don't know." I said shifting uncomfortably. "You don't have to," Tristian assured me. "I just asked because you're turning over a new leaf and everything." "Does it hurt?" I asked remembering, how some alcohol burnt my throat. "Only if you inhale too hard,"
~Haven's POV~ My conception of time was terrible while high, so I wasn't sure how much longer we stayed before Tristian drove me home. It seemed like it took us literally a second to reach my house. I wasn't really high anymore, just kind of giggly. "What do I do?" I whispered. "You go in there and you act normal and then you sleep this off." Tristian answered. "How can I act normal ?" I snorted. "How about I go in with you?" "Yes please. Can we make out?" "Sure, babe." I stumbled out of the car and then attempted to straighten myself up. Tris
*Tristian's POV* I was very happy with how my relationship with Haven was escalating. I'd been so close to having actual sex with her. She lets me go down on her whenever I wanted, which was basically every day. I loved pleasuring her like that. Making her shake and squirm. She was saying my name, not God's. I felt accomplished. My mission was going perfectly. I wasn't even really worried about her returning the favor. I didn't really need it. I just wanted to be inside her and make her go crazy. I wanted her perfect legs around me as I made love to her. I wanted to hear her heavy breathing right in my ear, let her moans overload all of my senses. Go so deep inside her that all she can think about is me. I just knew Haven would love sex and she'd want to do it like crazy. I
*Tristian's POV* Why is time going so fucking slow? We're still three days away from Saturday aka the day I make love to Haven. It's like God knows the sins we're gonna commit and was punishing us ahead of time for them. I had everything planned out. I was taking her to one of the nicest restaurants in town. My parents were letting me use the credit card. I told them I was dating a nice Christian girl (but not to bring it up to my grandma) and I wanted to take her on a nice date. They're so happy that I seemed to be turning over a new leaf. It was the first time since that horrible night that they actually seemed interested in me and what was going on in my life. We hadn't spoken much since I had moved here. Just a few forced phone calls courtesy of my grandma. She was always working so hard to keep our family together.
~Haven's POV~ My relationship with Tristian was heating up much faster than I had anticipated. I realized that's completely on me. I never realized how much I needed a sexual awakening until Tristian. Of course I liked his personality and mind and all of that but I am obsessed with how much he turned me on and how much I got him going. I cannot wait for him to be inside me. It's practically all I think about which is why I let him go down on me whenever he wanted. Who knew orgasms were so incredible? I couldn't believe we're actually having sex on Saturday. I never pictured this day happening like this, but I was so glad it was. Even though I felt slightly guilty about all the things I had been doing recently it wasn't enough to stop me. Besides, is it really a
~Haven's POV~ Tristian and I made out for like twenty minutes when he dropped me off at home. I entered my house feeling high and I didn't think it was weed. "Haven, is that you?" Mom called. "Yeah." "Can you come here sweetie?" I went to the living room. Mom and Dad were watching Jeopardy as usual. "Hey!" I smiled. "What's up?" "We just wanted to check in on you." Dad started. "We've noticed some...changes since your break up with Gabriel." "What kind of changes?" "Well, you don't straighten your hair anymore and your clothes are...different." Mom pointed out. "I mean you are a beautiful
~Haven's POV~ "Hey, guys. What's going on?" I asked. "You tell us." Abby stated. "Why are you two kissing? Are you rehearsing for a play or something?" Tristian laughed. "No, we're not. We're dating." "Dating?" Gabe stammered. "You-Haven!" "Yes?" I asked. "What are you doing with him?" "Well I was kissing him until you guys interrupted." I shrugged. "Wow, I really underestimated you, Tristian." Abby shook her head. "I didn't think you were smart enough to trick Haven, and yet here we are. You got her real good huh?" "What are you t
~Haven's POV~ It was finally here! It's the day I lose my virginity to Tristian. I was nervous and yet completely ready for it. I knew this was the right decision. "You nervous for your date tonight?" Heath asked. I nodded. "Kind of. But also I'm not. I mean it's Tristian. I don't have to be nervous with him." "Good. Um, Grace and I heard what happened with the others." "They don't know him," I whispered. "They had no right to say those things." "I agree, Haven. But you called Abby Godless?" "It's true. God is love and she does not spread love. She spreads hate all over the place. That's not right."
~Haven’s POV~ “So you chose Tristian?” Aleecia asked as we got ready for the wedding. “Are you surprised?” Grace snorted. “I mean it was always going to be him.” “Yeah, I suppose. But what are you two going to do in different states?” Aleecia questioned. “We’ll figure it out.” I answered. I didn’t want to take the attention off of Grace by telling them that I was moving to New York. Tristian talked to Avery this morning, who was thrilled to hear that I would be coming there too. I think it was all going to work out perfectly. This was what was meant to happen. “I’m gonna go check on Heath.” I stated. As I reached the door to the boy’s room, Logan stepped out of it. We stared at each other for a moment. “You look beautiful.” Logan whispered. “You look really handsome.” I offered. “I’m sorry for how I left things last night. I just...I’m tired Haven. Tired of pretending everything w
~Haven’s POV~Tristian was right.I wasn’t as happy as everyone thought I was.Up until now I couldn't figure out why. I knew something was missing, but didn’t know what it was.I now knew it was Tristian.It was strange because there was nothing wrong with Logan. He was perfect. But maybe too perfect. Sure that sounds dumb, but it was true.When we had gotten together he was exactly what I needed. Sweet, funny, loyal. During that time in my life, I required that kind of man.But three years later, things are different. I’ve grown as a person and while Logan has grown with me, I wasn’t sure he grew into someone that complimented the person I had grown into.Tristian had.Or had he? Was this me trying to relive a time in my life that was long gone? Did I still have that bad boy fantasy or something?I wasn’t sure. What I did know was I almost h
Three Years Later~Haven’s POV~Planning a wedding was not easy.It’s even harder when it’s not your wedding that you're planning.I was the Maid of Honor for Grace and Heath’s wedding that was in a mere five days!I was relieved that it would be over soon. I was ready to fully get back to life without thoughts of flowers and table cloths coming up.I sighed and sat back in my seat. Finally the work day was done. I looked next to my computer at the framed photo of me, Mom, Heath, Grace and Logan at mine and Tristian’s first and last gallery exhibit together.Mom passed away nine months after that. It was easier than Dad’s death. We knew it would happen. We were prepared. It was still painful.I felt guilty about the sense of relief I felt. I didn’t have to take care of her anymore. I could fully pursue my career after that and I did.I was now the cu
~Haven’s POV~Logan had been kind of distant with me since the trial. It had been a week of tiptoeing around the issue, but I just couldn’t take it anymore.“Logan, baby, is something wrong?” I asked.I knew we had to talk about what I had said at the trial. I hoped he wasn’t too upset with me.“Did you mean all that?” Logan whispered. “That he was your best relationship? He’s the love of your life...are you not happy with me Haven?”“Of course I am. Logan I love you. I meant that! At the time yes it was everything to me and I felt like my life had crumbled. But you’ve made it better. I’m happy with you. That’s why you’ve been the one by my side through this whole ordeal. I couldn’t have gotten through without you.”Logan studied me before smiling. “Alright. Good. Because I love you too and you being happy is the most impor
~Haven’s POV~I couldn’t believe what Mr. Vera was suggesting.That Tristian could have something to do with my father’s death. He would never.Tristian was a lot of things. A liar, a manipulator, a bad boyfriend. But he was not a murderer. He wouldn’t hurt me just so I would get closer to him.The defense lawyer was really going out of his way to try to prove Trevor’s innocence. The crazy thing was that Trevor himself didn’t seem like he wanted this. I think he actually wanted to take responsibility for what had happened.“Haven Campbell, please come to the stand.”I was shaky as I was sworn in. My eyes found Logan and then I felt safe again. He was like my anchor.“So, Ms. Campbell, you were with Mr. Fletcher the night of the accident, correct?” Mr. Rush questioned.“Yes, I was.”“And was there a moment where Mr. Fletcher could ha
~Haven’s POV~ I wish I could have nothing to do with the trial. I just wanted Trevor to be punished for what he had done and leave it at that. I wanted this painful time in my life to be over so I could move on for real. I hadn’t spoken to Tristian since Kent’s party. I was disappointed by his behavior towards Logan. He made him out to be some devious guy that wormed his way into my bed. But Logan wasn’t like that. He was sweet and sensitive and absolutely perfect. I was glad I was with him. +++ Before our day in court I had to find a way to calm myself down. So of course Logan and I had sex. I loved the way Logan looked at me when I was on top of him. How he bit his lip as he watched me and would close his eyes when it felt extra good. He would grip my hips and make me go faster, the sound of his moans increasing. “Fuck Haven,” He gasped. Logan pulled me down to him and kissed me before rolling on top of me and thrusting into me quickly. “Right there baby.” I murmured.
*Tristian’s POV* I was going to get Haven back. I had to. I couldn’t let Logan win. Haven was my girlfriend and I needed her. I just had to remind her that she missed me. That I was the hot bad boy that had made her want to change her life. She couldn’t resist me when we first met, so she shouldn’t be able to resist me now, right? The only problem about that was I needed to enlist Viola's help. I needed Haven to think that she and I were back together to make her jealous and realize how much she truly missed me. Easy enough right? “No.” “What do you mean no?” I demanded. “I am not going to help you trick a girl with a dead father and a dying mother!” Viola exclaimed. “Okay, but why not? You’ve never had morals Vi, what’s changed?” “All that I’ve done is fucking up my karma! This is gonna make it worse. Find another girl, Trissy.” “Another girl won’t bother her,” I groaned. “You will though. She’ll be foaming at the mouth.” “I’m not doing it.” She crossed her arms. “You
~Haven's POV~“Shit. Fuck. Haven, I'm so sorry.” He rolled off of me pulling the covers up.“Why?” I asked.“I feel like I just completely took advantage of you just so I could finally fuck you. I was thinking with the wrong head.”“Well I wasn’t exactly protesting. You did nothing wrong.”“Yeah?” Logan whispered. “I’ve been trying to control myself with you and I just lost control.”“I’m glad you did. I was tired of waiting.” I smiled.“Was it good for you?” I nodded. “Good. It was amazing for me.”I pulled him to me. “Then we should keep doing it.”Logan smiled back and kissed me. “It doesn’t have to mean what I want it to mean.”“What do you want it to mean?”“That I’m your boyfriend.”“It could m
*Tristian’s POV*This was worse than when I blew up the building.I thought people hated me then, but that was nothing compared to how much everyone hated Trevor after finding out what he did. And they hated me by association.Grandma didn’t even go to church that Sunday. She said the whispers were loud enough at the grocery store and she couldn’t take it.Everyone whispered about me at school and gave me dirty looks. No one talked to me in class at all.Even my friends were avoiding me. But I think that had more to do with them being pissed that I’d lied to Haven again. Aleecia and Logan didn’t speak to me at all. I could tell Cam wanted to, but never did if Logan was in the vicinity. Kent was the only one who openly and actively talked to me anymore.“So how’s Haven?” I asked.“Dude, you know she’s bad. Her dad is dead and her mom has cancer.” Kent s
