To all those who made my life miserable…I wouldn’t be so forgiving. I would fight to be free not just from this prison but from the rules and thoughts of others. I would be me unapologetically.
Did he think I would listen and apologise, complying quietly like the girl of yesterday? Well, unfortunately for him, she's no longer here and he's stuck with me. They all are.
“Sometimes freedom means being the bad guy. Sometimes, you gotta embrace the darkness they create in you and make it your
own. Don’t be consumed by the shit they throw at you or inflict. Instead, let the dark little soul in you break free and make ‘em all bleed.”
“Words can hurt, wounds can fester, but even the most broken of bones can heal again, Red.”
“Just live the way you want, Red. Whether you're the good guy or the bad guy in someone else's story, everyone becomes a villain at some point. It's only a difference in perspective.”
“Always give more than you get, Red. If they knock you down once, get back up and bury them.”
“Those eyes…” He leans in further, something more profound and intense growing in his gaze. “Never lose that, Red. That fight in you…Never let anyone take it away. With it, you can do almost anything.”
There's strength in a smile. Even if it's forced.” His gaze meets mine, and whatever he sees has his expression softening. “You seem like a fighter anyway, little sea star.”
My only true haven and home in this world was him. The only person I could trust, the only one I could truly be at ease with…
My world, my ally, my strength…my mate.
A small laugh leaves my lips as I watch her make light work of the door lock and head inside. I couldn’t wait to see what else this small one could do.
“You’re too fucking perfect.” His nose brushes softly against mine as his voice lowers to a whisper, “I never knew I was missing something until you came along.”
“It's because…you're everything that colour stands for…and more. Dangerous. Fearless…And a temptation…I shouldn’t touch or want…but can’t help coming back to…You’re the salvation I never knew I needed. My Red.”
