Remember Us This Way

by Sheridan Anne

“I told you that you were the greatest love of my life,” I tell her, the words so hard to say out loud, but I know I meant every fucking word, maybe I still do. “That I would make you the happiest girl in the world and protect you with my life.”

We’re two halves of the same whole, and no matter how much I try to pull us apart and burn that tether between us, we’ll always be forced back together. It’s inevitable.”

I . . . I was born with nothing but poison in my veins.

“You’ll never not be what I need,” I promise her. “Then I’ll never stop fighting for you.”

Kissing Noah Ryan was the biggest mistake of my life. He’s destroyed me, and not in the tore my heart out and trampled all over it for three long years kind of way. No, he’s made me want something I can’t have. He made me crave him in a way I never have before, and that is the most terrifying thing I’ve ever experienced.
