The sweet floral scent that had always comforted me now felt heavier, almost cloying, like it was trying to mask the bitterness underneath.

Eric felt as though he were looking at his younger self. He also loved Avril like that once.

She concluded “I'll can them the vanity crew” I couldn't hold back my laughter at this statement “Really Ella? The vanity crew? That's so cliche” I said laughing.

He scoffed, standing up and even from where he was standing, I could see that he'll tower over me. He straightened out his suit jacket. Eyes boring into mine. "The only dangerous roses are those with thorns Rose, and you my dear, you have no thorns. You're a pretty little flower, a harmless little flower."

I held my breath, breaking out in sweat as his proximity made fear spread through my now shivering frame. "You see... The Black Rose is a bad crowd to stick with. They'll lead you to your death. As a friend and a man who's insanely attracted to you... I advise you to cut all ties with them."
