I'm jealous of everybody who's with you when I’m not.
Violet
My fingers itched to grab his. It was like an addiction now. One moment and then a night where I held on to his fingers as I slept, and now all I could think about was to keep touching him. Have his skin against mine. His tanned tone to my fair one. His strength to my fragility. His warmth to my cold, trembling fingers.
“You are staring, princess.”
Startled, I looked down at my hands. But I couldn't keep my gaze from him for long. He looked so beautiful today. And so perfect, with a hint of dark danger wrapped around him. It wasn’t the kind to make me afraid, it was the kind I had seen yesterday when he had come to protect me and I
It's the monsters of the past that ruin my present.VioletFor a moment I was suspended in time. I was floating in the state where my mind was blank and my body was warm. Where it felt nice to touch another human, knowing that I won't get hurt in return. And everything felt right.The words I whispered for him were sincere, coming from a place where I was grateful to have him, for what he did last night and today. But a bigger part of me that prompted me to hug him was Maddox’s words that were ringing in my mind when he had said, 'I’m sure if he wanted he could have a number of women baking him treats’, and I was sure he was right. I had seen how that girl was looking up at him, touching h
Sometimes a hint of light at the end of the tunnel is enough to give the strength you thought you didn't have. ~A. GuptaSix Months Later...Violet“It’s beautiful...” I whispered softly as I laid my palm on Bree’s swollen stomach. She was almost reaching her full term and I was fascinated by the way her baby was letting everyone know that he was ready to come out in the world.Brenna looked at me, her own brown eyes were wide in amazement but unlike me her wonder was for me speaking those two words. Slowly, but I was starting to feel comfortable with the Carters. These people have become a part of my life that brings me nothing but safety. Until now I was a family m
Every time someone falls in love, there's another person who is wishing that he hadn’t.~ A. GuptaColeFuck.I shouldn’t have drunk that last bottle.Or one before that.Or the one before that.But who was fucking counting to stop me.I stumbled out of the bar, third of the night as in the last two the bartender thought I’d had enough for the night. The stupid fucking bastard didn’t know anything about enough.The only thing I’d had enough was...Enough was the pain I had been try
Still water runs deep. ~ProverbVioletI couldn’t sleep.I tossed and turned on the bed, the blanket warm and comfortable on me but it felt heavy and smothering. The light in my room was on, it was as bright as it could be and still I was tense like I was engulfed in the dark. And there were monsters to drag me back into my past.I glared at the empty chair by my bed and couldn’t help but curse him for making me so dependent on him.I didn’t realize or maybe I didn’t care as long as he continued to give me what I wanted, but now as he was glaringly absent, taking away the silent crutch that he was to me, I realized how much I’d come to depend on
She was the beautiful dream I had been searching for. The one to wake me up. ~Atticus.ColeI woke up with a banging in my head and one on my bedroom door. “Go the fuck away!” I grumbled but instead of going away, whoever was on the other side of the door entered my room.I slipped my head under the blanket, snippets of last night coming back to me and I groaned inwardly. I wanted to go back to the awesome fucking dream I was having. Those blue eyes were peering down at me and her fucking lap was the best mattress I had ever slept on. I wanted to jump back into that dream and forget about the reality.I heard the footsteps coming closer and squeezed my eyes shut. Fuck. I said, &l
Sometimes life gives you a second chance because maybe the first time you weren’t ready for it. ~UnknownViolet“You look tired...” Mrs Carter said as I sat down on the kitchen counter.“Couldn’t sleep.” I mumbled as I crossed my hands on the counter and laid my head down.First, I was unable to sleep without him being there in my room. And then when I went to his room, it was impossible for me to sleep with him looking so lost and hurt. I had spent four hours sitting on his bed with his head in my lap. It was only when I had heard Dominic and Maddox out in the backyard, playing basketball that I had slipped out of his room. Normally, Cole joined those two, but Maddox must’v
“According to Greek mythology, humans were originally created with four arms, four legs and a head with two faces. Fearing their power, Zeus split them into two separate parts, condemning them to spend their lives in search of their other halves.”ColeAs Maddox and Mrs Carter left the kitchen, leaving me alone with her, I turned around to look at her. She sat with her palms wrapped around her coffee mug. Her profile was to me as she glared down at her coffee like somehow that caffeinated drink had offended her.I sat down on the stool beside her and shifted. My mind replayed the words Maddox had said to me. He wasn’t the one who had taken care of me last night when he had brought me home, which made it clear who was. And it also highlight
Obsession.If it’s both ways, it’s not crazy madness. It’s a love language. ~A. GuptaVioletI sat in my bed and looked down at him. Like the other night, he looked beautiful as he slept. For me, I could not sleep. I was restless and even though my eyes were tired and my body needed sleep, I couldn’t seem to fall asleep.And it made me wonder if one could be addicted to touch. Specifically his.I sighed.When he had entered my room, I had pretended to be asleep as I didn’t want to look at him and see his expression for what I had done. I hadgone to Brandon’s room and
