It made me question everything.

The day we were introduced, I knew there was something about you that drew me in. I’d been content never to make a commitment before, but the more I got to know you, I knew that would change.

All I have are cowardly excuses of being in school, fear of coming out, and thinking that too much time had passed. But fate? It’s a funny thing, because I’m now forced to spend the summer with you, working together. It’s my chance to make things right, but I know I have to prove myself to you.

One of my teammates had spent the entire game spewing sexist insults at me, even though I carried the match and we won despite him.

Even though she slinks in unannounced and kills the wight he was hunting down, the girl’s a mystery, and he can’t get that blinding smile or those gorgeous curves off his mind.
