"I'll always run toward you." MilliEven with this heart condition, I have played more shows with my band, Code Names, in the last three years than I can count. None have ever ended and left me feeling like tonight did. It should have been my sign to go home, especially when most people run for the hills when they ultimately decide I'm dying. Instead, I'm panicking. The same guy I met and made out with last night, the guy my best friend broke up with her boyfriend for, is the man who now sits across from me, looking at me in a way that makes me want to break every rule I've given myself. LincolnShould I know better? Yes. Should I get up and leave? Also, yes. But the look in her eyes is challenging every semblance of my self-control, and all I can think about is pinning her against the wall, much like I did last night. The problem? Her best friend is my physics tutor. We almost had something going until I met Red at the bar. Not much is holding me back, but if that first kiss with her were to turn into more, I'd have to explain why my mother is in prison instead of cheering me on at the hockey arena. Sharing that side of me rarely goes well. Still, part of me is willing to loosen the reins if it means I might kiss her one more time. Book 1 of Code Names
