I mean, I had goals: college to
graduate in one semester, a future I was working hard to reach, and an image of
myself I wanted the world to see. My life was stacked into these precisely
placed blocks. But then Colton Gamble came along and knocked them all askew.
I hated how he messed everything up,
how he could hog all my attention whenever he was around, how he made my pulse
quicken--but only because he ticked me off...not because I was attracted to
him. Oh! And I hated how he knew how attractive he was too, the shallow, full
of himself, doesn't take no for an answer, too-flirty, too cocky, extremely
irritating jerk.
The boy had all the qualities that
turned me off. Or so I thought.
One night he wasn't quite the
brainless, over-confident jerk I usually took him for.
One night, he took care of me when I
was at my lowest. He opened up to me and made me open up to him.
Now I'm learning maybe he's not what
I first thought he was. And maybe I'M not what I first thought I was. Maybe
it’s okay to rearrange a couple of my perfectly set blocks. Maybe, just maybe,
I’ll stop worrying about what I’m afraid everyone else will think and finally
reach for something I really want. It’s possible some of my plans need to be
destroyed, and Colton Gamble is exactly the kind of mess I need in my life.
What do you think? Should I give him
a try?
Desperately seeking your advice,

“Just for that, I’m going to make
you cuddle.”
“Cuddle?” My eyes bulged as he
crawled closer.
For some reason, cuddling struck
more fear inside me than getting slapped or punched. I knew exactly how to
respond to those—kick his ass out of my apartment. But with cuddling, I was
lost.
I edged away from him, shaking my
head, only to yelp out a surprised scream when he snaked out a hand and caught
hold of my leg, stilling me.
“Yes, cuddle,” he said. “I like to
cuddle.”
My muscles clenched and limbs went
tense as he climbed up right into my personal space and wrapped himself around
me like a second skin.
“I…I’m not big on cuddling,” I
finally admitted, my body board-stiff against him.
“Really?”
He sounded surprised by that. “Well, don’t worry, by the time I’m through with
you, you’ll love it.
