Robbie • Anthony (Ant)
….
“I like him like crazy. I like him in a big, scary way that I know in my bones is a big deal. A big thing. The next big thing in my life. He may not feel it yet. Hell, he may not even know what we are yet, but I do. I know things. I know feelings. And this thing between us is as real as anything I’ve ever felt.”
….
Oh this was the best way to close my reading year of 2024. Wonderful, wonderful. I don’t know how the Author did it but they have taken a plot that is out there and made it perfectly theirs. It’s always in the way a story is written. Everything was blended into a perfect combination like a well practiced morning coffee, crème de la crème. The first sip, the calm between and savoring the last. Ant’s talk about feelings, I never felt seen, like I would put words to words about myself. I love them both but Robbie just made himself at home on my ♾️ fictional boy list. I love my next grumpy boy but a confident all smiles one *fans herself*, Ant had no chance.
If you like your stories extra spicy babygirl, mixed with little but very significant gestures, hush bed talks, this one was written for you.
Ps. Boy next door? I am peeking 👀.

Ne-Yo - Because Of You
….
“Fix your face, Princess, or they’ll all know you’re just as much of a dick as I am.” // “This close, I can see fine striations of fern and moss green fanning out against a golden-brown backdrop.” // “As if it’s not in the least bit problematic to be standing in the middle of a room, cavalier as you fucking please, with a jock strap cutting fine lines into your flesh.” // “You know people can see when you visit their profile page, right?” // “You smell like something I want, Decker. Something I need.” // “Feels like I have a big hole in my chest. Like there was something there before, keeping me together, that isn’t there now. I feel…undone. Like my heart is open.” // “And I want you to know that.” // “It’s his face. His insanely beautiful face with a great big derpy smile plastered all over it.” // <3. 🐜 // “Tell me you’re happy.” // “…everything hurts my feelings. Everything. Really stupid, minor shit that most people don’t even remember, it all fucks me up. I hate it, but I can’t help it.” // “It’s not the way he looks at me that gave us away. It’s the way I look at him.” …
