Leave me in the past. Stainer K.

In the arms of my best friend, I am more close to sin. Tyler's gaze slides over my lips, and I recall how the first to kiss him seven years ago, before she left this city and vowed to never return. His hands squeeze my waist, and I remember the pain when he rejected me, and my whole world collapsed.

We do not belong to each other, and should not kiss.

I tried to hold on Away from Tyler, but when his sister’s wedding returns us to the same city, to the same house, I cannot avoid meeting him, no matter how hard I try. He is always nearby, his dark eyes fascinate, beckoning into his depths. Memories of us pull me under the water, and when Tyler smiles, my breath caught my breath. I cannot break out of his grip. If he kisses me right now, I will drown. And I will take him with me...

Now I beg Tyler to make me hate him, knowing that he can never.
