LOGIN"I am no fool, Mia. I am no fool. One day, you'll say yes to me, and when that happens, I will make it worth your while. I'll show you how good you are at loving someone else, that, being me, of course, and spend my days loving you as well. You say you're not perfect... So what? Who gives a shit. You're not perfect. No one is. But I swear to you, that if you give me a chance... Just one chance, I will make it worthwhile." I say as I pull her closer. I can hear her heart beating fast. Her eyes darken, and she bites her bottom lip. She shyly closes her eyes tilting her head away. God- she drives me crazy. I kissed her neck, and her hands grip my shirt, letting me know she liked it. Before I know it, I'm lifting her, making her wrap her legs around me as I kiss her neck, sucking gently and making her gasp. ~~~~~~~ They say friends shouldn't date. It always ends badly, but there are times when the attraction is far too strong. Nate Spencer has been in love with Mia Miller for the longest, and she has inevitably loved him. Now that Nate's free from any relationship, Mia chooses to follow her heart and give him a chance. But will he stick around to face all her shadows? Or will it be too much for him to bear?
View MoreMia's POVI felt the pinch of the needle prick, making me shut my eyes. The feeling of uneasiness creeping up my chest, this unwavering sensation of solitude and betrayal... it left me with more questions than answers.Warm tears slide down my cheeks as a painful knot in my throat rose. Is this what life was meant to be? Lies, betrayal... and more lies. My mind can't grasp everything I've learned today. It's nearly two in the morning, and I'm here... sitting in a cold plastic chair, getting blood drawn for who I thought was a good friend, but could possibly be my half-brother. It made sense now... I kept wondering why Jordan had been acting differently toward me. Now I understand. I get it now... why his mom hated me. And I get why she hated my mom and how she loathed my family.I didn't understand it before, but I do now. I didn't want to understand it, at least I think I do now. My entire life has been spent living in the shadows.Like, why?Why the fuck didn't anyone dar
Mia's POVNate hugged me tightly as Leroy took Amanda out of the house, leaving us behind. "What are we standing here for? We need to get to the hospital, and we need to make sure Jordan is okay." Kenzie says, looking concerned between us."You heard, Leroy. He told us to go home," Kate says, tears in her eyes."I'm not going home while my boyfriend is in the hospital, injured, Kate. Now, please, someone drive me out there," she pleads, looking between us."She's right. We... we need to make sure he's ok." I say, wiping my tears away. Nate holds my shoulders, looking at me with teary eyes."Are you sure you want to go see him, babe? You don't look so good yourself. Maybe we should," "He's not just your best friend, Nate. He's Kenzie's boyfriend, our friend, and... possibly my brother." I say, the news is still unbelievable."We have to go. I don't care that Amanda hates me and my family. We need to be there for him," I say, pushing his arms away and going to grab my bag. We make i
Mia’s POVThe tension in the air was palpable. Jordan did not want to back down, challenging his mom. And given her posture, she was not happy.Not one bit.“Who cares? I don't care anymore. Whether I get drafted or not… it doesn't matter anymore. This life,” he says, his eyes tearing, and waving his arms.“It's just a big lie. You're both laughable. You pretend to be a perfect married couple, pretend you care about me,” he says, and something stirred inside me. His words… the sadness in his voice. I've been there. Depression. It was no wonder he had been acting differently lately.“Jordan, what are you talking about? If you think acting up for a second will save you from being grounded.” Amanda says, looking at Jordan sternly.“Uhm… Manda… maybe we should talk with him privately.” Leroy says, holding her hand and looking at the rest of our friends left in the house. “Don't bother. We tried talking, remember? But you blew us off, Mom!” Jordan says, emphasizing her name.“Guys, may
Jordan's POVI sat on my kitchen counter, talking to my best friend Nate while everyone partied through the night. It had been a while since I had a party at my house, and given tonight's event, I needed to unwind quickly. I had to shake off my earlier conversation with my parents from my brain. But it didn't matter how hard I tried, those words my mom spat kept lingering in my mind. Insisting, provocative, and wicked thoughts went through my head. Was I wrong to defend Mia at all odds against my mom? "What if what she said was true, Nate? What if. Mia's mom was the cause of my parents' constant bickering. I mean... I won't be any different regarding my point of view from Mia's. I still think... the possibility of her and I being related could... ugh!" I gripped my hair, closing my eyes in frustration. "What did your dad say?" Nate asks, making me sigh, letting my breath drag out in frustration. "Nothing. What could he say? My mom still blames him for everything. Every time he's
