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

"My boss is planning a big Halloween party at The Flying Goat in a couple weeks. Well, actually, his wife is, but I wondered if you’d want to help with something? I know that means you’d have to meet my friends, but it’s been a month and I’m ready, if you are, I mean."


A month ago, all I wanted out of life was easy and uncomplicated. Nothing but between the sheets action. And until I laid eyes on Chloe, it was working just fine. But now, I want complicated, even though being with Chloe is hardly that. But I want the way she shakes up my life, the difference in how I see the world because of her influence on me. I’m seeing things differently, opening my mind and heart up to the one thing I swore I’d never do again.


Not that I’m in love with her, but I see the potential of it happening. And unless my instincts are way off, she’s along for the ride.
