"I told you not to drop me here. " I hiss at Emerson as I unfasten my seatbelt before I turn to grab my bag from the backseat.
"And who are you trying to hide from?" He queries when I move back to my seat.
"I'm not hiding. It just feels... Weird?" I tell him as I duck my head from his gaze and Emerson drops his hand to my chin, tipping my head to meet his eyes. "Then you should get real with it because this isn't a one-time thing. "
"It is. You won't be taking me tomorrow. I don't care what you use. "
"Is that a challenge?" He raises a daring brow, the corners of his lips curving when I hum before I push forward to press my lips to his. "Take it as you feel. " I tell him when I pull back, attempting to move out but Emerson's hand slides to the back of my neck and he takes my lips in his again, not stopping the luscious attack of his lips and his tongue till

EVA."I think I might have a problem, " Aliya complains as she drops to the seat in front of me and I shut my laptop to focus my gaze on her. "What's it?""I might have or might have not told Sage that I'm getting tired of our relationship. " She says as she drops her bag to the side before tilting forward and I furrow a brow, "What? What does that mean?""I don't know, " she sighs. "I don't know what's wrong with me. ""Is that how you feel?" I ask her and she nods. "It suddenly feels too much; like I'm being boxed in or something and I hate that feeling. ""What was her reaction when you told her?""She walked out on me. " A frown covers her face as she stares down at her hands. "I told her I needed a break to rethink our relationship and she just walked out... Without a word. ""I'm not surprised, " I let out a chuckle and she li

EMERSON. "Eva!" I call, attempting to rush after her as I watch her walk through the door, but a sudden grip on my wrist stops me and I turn around to see Paige; irritation flowing through me at the sight of her and the shit she just pulled. "Emerson—" she starts with a shaking voice, and I jerk her hold from my wrist, glaring at her as I speak, "What the fuck is wrong with you? Why the fuck did you do that?" "I–" she starts with a hiccup. "I'm sorry. I just– I didn't know what to do. I was there and you were here, and I needed you. I needed you to–" "You needed me and I was fucking here! I was here, Paige. I was doing all I could to be the comfort you needed and you thought it was okay to cross the line?" I raise a brow, my breath coming out in heavy pants and she shakes her head as she attempts to step closer, but one glare from me to her leg movement stops it. She swallows before she opens her mouth, "It wasn't enough, Emerson. It was never going to be enough. I needed more.

EMERSON.I'm quick to raise my head from the steering wheel at the vibration of my phone, and I move over the divider to grab it; the previous disappointment washing through me when I see it's a text from Hanna, and not who I expected."Where are you, Eva? Please, don't do this to me. " I mumble under my breath as I scroll to the last text I sent her. Delivered, but left unread.DIVA: You're making me fucking worried about you. You can't just do this, Carson. Just come back, please. I'll head out if you want me to; I just need to make sure you're safe.I hit send before my eyes drift to the time and it reads eleven."Maybe she went back home. " I give into that thought, and throw my phone to the side to start the engine as I drive in the direction of home.I almost trip over my seatbelt as I attempt to climb out of the car.

PAIGE. Blondie's eyes go wide after my palm makes contact with her cheek, not exactly feeling the pleasure I hoped it would bring. "What the fuck did you just do?" She let out as the books drop to her feet and I say, "I smacked you and trust me, I want to do so much more. " "Bitch, who the fuck do you think you are?" She snaps as she lunges towards me and grabs me by the arm. She pushes me till my back is to the wall and before she can lift her hand, I say, "Emerson told me to disappear out of his life. " The motion of her hand stills but she stays rooted to the spot. "Look here. I know what you think of me. I'm the one who's trying to take someone who isn't mine, " I let out and Eva loosens her hold on me, taking a step back. I heave a sigh before I continue, "It's not what you think and I'm not here for what you think I'm here for. Emerson and I... We share a bond. To me at least, we do. He was there when I needed someone; he was always there. " "He was there for you as a g

ALIYA. How does one love? How do you fall in love with that person and decide you want to keep that moment forever? How does one stay in love without wanting to leave? These are the thoughts that are always on my mind ever since that day. Ever since she ran out of my room with tears in her eyes and I watch her leave, because I know going after her will do nothing but worsen the pain that I've caused. The pain that I couldn't hold back building. My name is Aliya Collins and I have a problem. I do not know how to love and stay in love. At first, I thought maybe it was because I've never been in a relationship, but after being and breaking out of love – I realised that never was the problem. It was vice versa. It isn't that I couldn't love because I wasn't in a relationship; I wasn't in a relationship because I couldn't love. But things changed from that moment I met her. Have you ever looked into someone's eyes, and thought: oh, I do want to know this person more than this. I

EVA. "I might be home late tonight, are you alright with that?" Emerson asks as I unfasten my seatbelt. I turn to him and say, "Why not? Are you leaving campus early?""Yes. I have to head over to Jaxon for some things. " He tells me and I nod, tearing my gaze away from his to grab my bag. "Is that okay with you?" Emerson inquires when I drop my gaze back to him and I nod, "Of course. Gives me more alone time to myself without you sniffing your face into my ass. ""Oh, babe, " he chuckles as he leans over the divider to grab my chin. "Have I ever mentioned how adorable you sound when you try to hide the truth from me?""I don't think I need to hide if it's—" Emerson's lips on mine shut me up and he stays for five seconds before he pulls back, "Make me dinner before I get back, yeah?""What am I? Your wife?" I snort out a laugh as I slap his hand from my chin and he sinks back in his seat with a knowing smile on his face. "No, you're something more. That sounds too low in comparison.

EVA. The air between us has altered and my fists are folded as a measure to not slip over the edge with my nose flaring in irritation as I stare at Emerson, who stands two steps away from me with frustration clear in his eyes– no doubt that it comes nowhere as close to mine. "I can't believe you, Eva. What is it that you want to hear from me?" He speaks and I say, "What is it that you're hiding?""I'm not hiding anything—" He starts, but I cut in, my voice loud as I part my lips. "Stop fucking lying! You don't get to do that, Emerson. You don't get to lie right to my fucking face! You're keeping something from me. It's visible and I want to know it!""So you think I'm hiding something from you because I don't want you using my phone behind my back or because I didn't take a call in your presence? Can you hear yourself, Eva? You're calling me a liar because I want my privacy?" Disbelief laced through his voice as he scoffs. "No. Don't. Don't do that. Don't turn this on me. This isn'

SAGE. Whoever said love is the greatest emotion of all and the best thing that could ever happen to anyone in their lifetime has got a fucked up viewpoint, because love is in fact the worst thing that could ever happen to anyone. We've all been taught to know the promising sides of love; the happiness and fulfilment it could bring. We've been forced to seek it out in our lives, when we should be staying away from it. Everyone says the good things about love, but no one said the horrible sides. The pain? The heartache? The way it easily fucks your entire being, messing with your mentality and your health? No one taught us about that. No one taught us that love would give us a slice of heaven, and a whole tide of hell. No one taught us that love will turn out to be your biggest catastrophe. Love doesn't heal; It hurts. It doesn't put you back together, it breaks you into pieces and leaves you to remain in that state. Being in love is one of the biggest regrets that I've ever had
