Fake it 'til you make it has been the motto I live by since my mother died.

I'm also doing a really bad job at the making it part.

The night we met, I was at my lowest.

But you gave me a reason to feel happy again.

For the first time in over a year, I was optimistic.

You and I? We're the same. Don't form attachments. Follow the rules. Don't dream of a future.

Too bad our hearts wouldn't listen.

And this storm we're going through? The one that threatens to rip us apart?

It doesn't care that I'm falling for you.

Falling for You

It’s been three days since I’ve seen Chloe.


I’ve talked to her every day in between but not being able to see her is nothing short of dumb. The only thing that’s made the few days separation bearable is the fact that we’ve both been working. She stays late a few nights a week so she can be there for her clients who work during the day and I’ve had shifts at The Flying Goat to cover.


The new bartenders Ethan hired have been asking for more hours, so I graciously gave up my two weekend shifts so they could fill in. The tips are incredible and as college students, they need the money.


But that doesn’t stop me from coming in before the busy Friday night crowd gets here to help out during Happy Hour.
