“I’m breathless to hear more of your lies.” “You were hardly that.” “Then what was I?” he challenged, backing me against the opposite wall.

“What the hell are you doing back here?” “Is that any way to greet your first love? I got to say”-his gaze slowly traced every dip and curve of my body-“I l ove how well you’ve grown up, Bette.” “First love?” I scoffed, even though it felt like he’d stolen my breath. Was that yearning burning in the pit of my stomach or fear of the unknown? Because I didn’t know this Jamie, and judging by the wicked gleam in his eyes as he flashed that mocking grin, I didn’t want to know. This boy standing before me was darker, edgier…more tragic to my lonely, fragile heart. Gone was the gentle boy next door with a full mop of hair, a lanky body, and an easy smile. Recalling my sweet Jamie from long ago, and what happened the last time I’d seen him, I knew I was responsible for every one of them. Most of them were angry and aggressive, almost scary as if he were showing off his demons for anyone to see. He’d left the buttons undone, allowing anyone who laid eyes on him to see his hard chest and defined abs…and the many tattoos that covered them. The white cotton only pronounced his tanned skin. The short sleeves of the button up he wore were rolled and bunched at the shoulders, displaying the muscles he’d grown since I’d last seen him four years ago.
