Nothing to Everything (Roommate for Roommate Book 1)

by Maia Aaron

How could I ever say no to her when she looks at me like that?

How could I ever deny her? I would do anything for her, just to get her to be happy with me, just for once.

How can she constantly insult me and mock me and openly hate me, and yet I still like her so much she’s all I think about?

“You don’t have anything better to do?” Better than seeing you? No.

But here she is, standing in the middle of my house, laughing for me. It’s fucking beautiful. I want to live off of the sound forever.

I just want to be there for her, in any way I can. In any way she’ll let me. Even if I would literally get on my knees and kiss the ground beneath her feet to show her just how incredible I think she really is,

Has she ever looked this beautiful? God, I would’ve done this competition a hundred times over if I knew getting Wendy to smile at me was the fucking prize.

“For you, Wendy? Anything.”

I wonder why I’ve never noticed just how gentle and kind his eyes are when he looks at me, and if he’s always looked at me that way.

God, he’s so beautiful, it hurts.

There’s not a single thing in this world I wouldn’t do for this girl when she looks this fucking gorgeous asking it of me. If she asked me to kill a hundred men for her I’d kill a thousand. Just to please her, to see her look at me like I’ve made her proud, made her happy, because that’s all I want to do.

“Sometimes it’s so hard to look at you because I’m scared if I do for too long, I’ll never stop. Because God knows I never would if I could.”

God, how am I going to live now? How am I going to get through every day without her being there next to me the whole time?

I want these small acts of affection to be mine forever. I want his touches to belong to me and only me, and I want to give him mine whenever I want to.

Winning a trophy is never going to be more important than winning over my girl.

All I can think about is my girl and how fucking beautiful she looks right now.

“I want to see you surrounded by stuff you love.” My heartbeat quickens in my chest. Isn’t she just perfect?

I’m pathetic for you, Wendy. I’ll always take anything you’re willing to give me, because something from you is better than nothing at all.”

“Of course. If I can do something to help you, then obviously I’d want to do it.”

I want to shrink and have her carry me in her pocket everywhere.

I think Fitz was meant for me. That he’s my wish I never knew I made come true.

What a beautiful, beautiful sight. How can this gorgeous man be all mine?

A smile I would die a hundred times over just to see, because it’s my own personal heaven. And that’s the moment. This is the moment I realize, with the utmost certainty, that I am completely, utterly, wholly, absolutely, beautifully, and achingly in love with Wendy Marin.

I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat if it always ends with us finding each other.”

You’re the air I breathe. Your smile is the only one I ever want to see. I don’t want to think unless it’s of you. Without you, I am nothing, but with you, I am everything.
