“I don’t give a shit.” I gave half a shit,

“Because if anyone gets to kick your ass, it’s me. Alright?
and they say romance is dead
“Stay,” he whispered. I didn’t know what to make of that. “Maddox?” It was barely a whisper this time, and he wasn’t even fully lucid. I barely moved, not wanting to hear whatever he was about to say. “Thanks.”
“Did you ever stop to think that you’re using this fucked up competitiveness as an excuse? That you feel shit so strongly for him that you don’t know how to cope with it, so you turn it into hate?”
period
I’d always been more of a relationship-type guy
i like
Like…I couldn’t get him out of my head.
I closed the distance between me and them and punched this guy right in his smug fucking face.
hell yeah
Tell me! Tell me if you’re gay!
“You fucked with my head,” I blurted, completely unaware I was going to confess all my shit to him in the middle of a forest. “You got all beat up and vulnerable, and I’d never seen you like that before…” What was I doing? “And then you slept in my bed, twice! And I felt you there, okay? I felt you, and I saw some shit that I shouldn’t have, and I goddamn showered you! And now my head’s all fucked up and I don’t know what to do about it!” Shut up, Maddox.
KEEP TALKING MADDOX
“And it made my cock hard. I’ve been trying to come to terms with that for two fucking weeks.” He huffed out a crazed breath. “I fucking hate you, Maddox, but I want to—”
“Then walk away, Maddox. Walk the fuck away and pretend this never happened. That’s what you want, right?” Yes. No. I didn’t know.
omgg
“I don’t know what I want,” I admitted. I looked at his eyes, his lips, his eyes, his mouth again. What did I want? Why did he light a fire inside me and what did the flames mean?
now kiss
“Fucking hell,” Devon snapped. For the third time, he grabbed my throat, slammed my back into the tree, and crushed his mouth to mine.
yessir
Other than Nate, I had no one in this world. No real friends. No real parents. No partner. Nothing and no one. How fucking sad was that?
:(
Maybe it was. Maybe I was the only one who couldn’t get that kiss off my mind. Maybe it was normal for him, the same as kissing any other guy,
Why did that hurt so much? Why did it bother me that he could forget about it like it never happened? Like fuck, he was the first and only guy I’d ever kissed. How was I supposed to forget that? Actually, he was the first person I’d ever kissed and…felt all that with.
:((
“Like I was grateful for you. Like I wanted you. Really fucking wanted you.”
“Tell me what you want, Madd.” I put my hand on his thigh. His eyes watched it happen, and my eyes watched his throat hitch. He looked from my hand to my face, the green of his eyes reflecting the blue of mine at me. He licked his lips, glanced at mine, and said, “Not to be a coward again.”
!!!!
“I want you,” he admitted, slightly calmer, but not by much. “I fucking want you.” He looked like he wanted to kill me.
im eating this shit up
I sank to my knees.
?!?!
I was freaking out!
lol
“Devon,” I breathed, gripping the front of his shirt to keep him there, “I want to…
needy mf
“Because!” he shouted, getting angry again and throwing his arms out in exasperation. “Because I don’t want to freak you out. Because I don’t want you to do more than your slow-as-fuck brain can catch up with. Because I don’t want you to run!” He looked shocked at that last bit. “Fuck, because I don’t want this to be the only time this shit happens.” His face was red, and he had this weird combination of expressions on his face—vulnerable, pissed off, scared. “Because as much as I fucking hate you, Maddox, I fucking like you, too. Okay?”
