To all the night owls and midnight lovers who chase their dreams when the sun goes down. This is mine.
I liked my coffee black, my beer cold, and my whiskey neat.
“The messier, the better,”
“That looks…” I cleared my throat. “Uh, good on you.”
“I went to every single one of your games in high school, didn’t I?”
That jersey she wore tonight might have had his name on it, but it was from my closet.
All doe-eyed and confused, I didn’t recognize her for a second.
“It’s pepperoni and pineapple. You still like that, right?”
“You remember what kind of pizza I like?”
“Why do you care?”
“As long as I’m not driving Gemma around, it’s not like it’ll matter to you if I end up in a ditch with a broken neck.”
“Don’t ever say something like that again.”
“You don’t need to wait for me.” “Yes, I do.”
“I need you to show me where your car is so I can look at it.”
“Didn’t realize you were afraid of a little bare skin, Rosie,”
and to my horror, he damn near closed the distance between us, causing me to stumble back
Julian’s sharp eyes danced with amusement as he placed a hand on the car roof behind me, leaning in.
“I’m not afraid of getting di...

“You don’t have to—” “I’ll do it Monday,”
“Now, come on. It’s getting late.”
a strong arm looped beneath my back and my knees, and I realized—with a fair bit of horror—that Julian was carrying me.
“Sometimes you are absolutely infuriating,”
“Sometimes?”
“All the time.”
Julian and I were like magnets—always had been. We were two same-sided magnets, and the repulsion force was overwhelming. Undeniable. There were times, though, that one of us…flipped. And suddenly, there’d be a pull.
“All the time?”
“Feeling’s mutual, Daisy.”
That accident changed everything. Juniper thought it was because I blamed her for it, and that was honestly for the best. Better than her knowing the wake-up call it gave me, the realization it caused me as a teenager of why she got so under my skin, of why her determination to sneak into my family bothered me so much when I—
“Because no matter where I go, I can’t fucking escape her.”
I hated it a fucking lot.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” “Why do you care?”
“You don’t even deserve to look at her, Kennedy. Leave her the fuck alone.”
“See, you don’t care about her,”
