Erin Hawkwood is a junior in high school and the perfect child, even when her twin Evelyn, and older brother Evan seem otherwise. That's until she meets Elijah D'Cruz on accident, who shows her what she's been missing....


His eyes pool with tears and I can't stop my tears from streaming down my face. My hands are trembling with the gun in it and I don't even know if I'll be able to hold it up straight. Is this it? The end?

"I love you babygirl." He says, placing a kiss on my forehead, before turning the corner of his car and all I can hear are gun shots and wails and screams.

The Nose Piercing Boy

We pull back awkwardly and make our way back to the car, after being interrupted by Roland's servants coming to clean up the mess. Even their mops look expensive. 


"After you." He says, holding the car door open for me. After the kiss, or two kisses, I can't seem to look him in the eye. 


I quickly take my chance to slip in to the seat and shove my hands in between my thighs. 


He reaches down and grabs the bit of my dress that lags behind me as I walk, and places it inside the car, before closing the door. My heart skips a beat at his action. 


He climbs in and notices something my way and reaches over me. My heart beats rapidly, thinking he's gonna kiss me again, but instead, he grabs the seatbelt and buckles me in. Gosh, I'm such a baby. 


Most of the ride is silent. It's dark now, maybe 10pm, and I have no clue where we are and don't recognize any of the streets. 


Was I a bad kisser? Is that why he's not talking to me?
