DAWN.
My eyes flutters open and I let out a sigh as I take in my surroundings. Just one look at it and I know this isn't my place. I know exactly where this place is and judging by my sore legs; I remember what happened last night, too.
I sigh again before rolling to the other side of the bed, my eyes meeting with Ryder Smith who's peacefully sleeping at his side, his one hand laying across my stomach while the other rests at his side.
What the fuck have you done, Dawn?
I promised I was going to stay away and hate this man with every fiber in me and yet, the first thing that came to my drunk mind was to get into his pants. What the fuck is wrong with me?! This is only going to complicate things further, and complications are very far from what I need right now.
I swipe my hands down my face before attempting to sit up, only for his arm to tighten around me, encircling around my waist before pul

DAWN.Bryan is going to Boston? Why the hell is he going to Boston and how am I just knowing this?"I thought we all applied to Washington. How the hell is he going to Boston?"I turn my entire body towards Kira, who just shrugs, telling me she has absolutely no idea either."I really don't know, but it seems like its something he's been planning for a while because he already applied and did all other necessary things. According to him, he was going to tell us until the last minute but when he found out you're going too, he decided to just let the cat out of the bag but hey, you know this is a good thing, right? I have been worried about how your shitty self was going to cope in a new city, but now that you have at least one close friend coming along with you, you guys should be fine. "She smiles and I nod absentmindedly, staring ahead of us. She's right. In all honesty, I have been nervous about how it'll be moving to a new city, but
DAWN."Oh, I'm going to miss you so much, Dawn. So, so much. I can't believe you're leaving me. I can't believe I'm allowing you to do this, but I know you have to. Everything you have said up to now are all true, which is why I'm giving you this freedom. I love you so much, Dawn, and I'm going to miss you so much. "Aunt cries as she squeezes me tightly for the hundredth time and I let out a chuckle, hugging her once again, just like I've been doing."I know, Aunt. I know, I'm going to miss you too and I'll try to call you now and then to let you know how things go. "I give her a small smile, pulling away from her and she nods, her eyes suddenly getting teary and I know she's about to cry. Again!"Aunt, please don't cry. I'm not leaving to die, I'm leaving to pull myself together and become a better person. "I assure her, and she nods, wiping away her tears."Oh, I know. I know that very much, it's just being so l
DAWN. I press my lips into a thin line, my hands gripping tightly onto the flesh of my thighs, almost hurting in a way as the string of cusses I'll throw at him runs through my mind. Who the fuck does he think he is to pull this stupid trick on me? Have his men kidnap me from the airport? I raise my gaze, my heart drumming fast against my chest, when I realize the car isn't going toward his place. Where are we heading to? I say nothing, even though slight fear shakes through my body. These are truly Ryder's men, right? Of course they are. Which other man would be stupid enough not to understand simple words that says; We are over. The car speeds down a silent road with no one passing through here. I gaze out the door and raise my brows in confusion when I realize we are moving out of the city. Why are we moving out of the city? I thought we were going to Ryder. I gaze back at the two men at the fro
RYDER.She's here again. In my arms. Even if she doesn't want to be here, she's here again and it'll be the last time I have with her. This time for real; there will be no going back.She gazes at me, her eyes moving across my face as if she's trying to weigh her options, but I know her. I know her far more than she realizes and I know she wants me just as much as I want to hold her in my arms once again before she embarks on this stupid journey of hers that she thinks will keep me away from her or make her forget me. She won't be able to, not because I don't want her to, but because we are both in too deep and it's just too late to want to start over again.I know I'm terrible to her. I have been so selfish with her but if being selfish is what I need to do to keep her from leaving; the selfish is what I'm going to be, despite everything I have done. Despite how much she has hurt because of me. The many times she has cried because of me. The pain no
DAWN. "So he just let you go like that? Without a fight or anything, despite knowing Bryan, is there with you? The man has confidence. " Kira speaks over the phone as Bryan drops a glass before me and I chuckle, shaking my head. "I do not know what came over him, either. I thought having to get away from him was going to require a lot of fights and arguments, but he brought me here himself, which is saying something. I'm glad it's over now though. " I tell her, feeling Bryan's eyes on me. "Is he giving up? Leaving everything you guys have? Maybe he got fed up. " "We have nothing together," "Says the girl that has fucked him twice after concluding she hates him. " I can smell the sarcasm dripping from her voice, and I roll my eyes. Why do I tell this girl things? "It isn't like that and you know it, there's nothing between us. He isn't really giving up, though he would once he realizes there's no chan
DAWN. I breathe in, inhaling in his sweaty self when he wraps his hand around my waist to pull me to his chest, the other one going to my head and smoothing down my hair, just like he always does. "Let me go. You are covered in probably dried sweat and some more. ā I groan, trying to push at his chest, but that only ends up in me, trailing my fingers down his chest, loving the feel of his muscles beneath my fingers. "But you smell so fucking good. " He coos, burying his nose in my hair and sniffing it before laying his head against my neck. "Plus, you can't deny that you don't love this, feeling this feverish body against yours. " "Hands off me, Stone!" I snap and he lets out a chuckle before pulling away, eyes moving across my face before dropping and trailing over my body. His eyes linger on my legs, and I roll my eyes when a look of disapproval crosses over his features. Knowing exactly where this is going.
"Such a nice thing in a skirt. Mind if I drill into you, baby?" The man utters complete gibberish as I walk past him and I roll my eyes, looking down at myself before rolling my eyes again. How drunk do these guys get? To the extent this one can't even differentiate between a skirt and a damn Jean anymore? I should have never listened to Bryan when he said to come here. I knew this bastard was only going to leave me to chase after any girl that's willing to spread her legs. And it's exactly what he did as soon as we got here. Not knowing my place around here and suddenly feeling so pressed, I take the first sharp corner I see, flipping off any drunk guy that comes close to me. One even comes as far as trying to grab my ass. I'm never... I mean, never letting Bryan talk me into this again. I let out a sigh of relief when I finally arrive at the stairs, the blaring of the music, sliding of bodies and chatters of drunk men who can no longer d
"Why are we here, again?" Bryan groans beside me as we push our way through sweaty bodies, and I roll my eyes. "Why are you here again?" I retaliate, frowning when a guy bumps into me and doesn't even have the fucking decency to apologize as I watch him skip away, Bryan trying to get to him but failing to do so as we mix up with the crowd once again. "Because I would not allow you to come here alone!" "Exactly, so stop complaining. It was your choice to follow me here, even when I said not to. " I raise my voice a little to the chatters that suddenly fills the air. How the fuck is it so crowded here? I can barely even make out where I am heading. "Which I'm glad I fucking did. I can't imagine you getting through here on your own, you own me one, Meek. " I roll my eyes, flipping him off as I dodge through bodies, instantly regretting my decision to dive through when the smell of alcohol, smoke and sweat
