"Oh, my fu-!!!!"
My nails dug into the fleshy part of my palms as I gripped the grab handle above me with every bit of strength I had when Asheton zipped into the right lane of the highway again.
He'd been zigging and zagging, cutting in front of speeding cars whose tires squealed while their horns blared angrily every time he did. For the past twenty minutes, that felt more like hours, I forced my eyes shut every time the car jolted from one side of the highway to the other while trying to convince my brain that I wasn't dying... at least not yet.
"Asheton! Jesus! Slow down!!!!" I shrieked, squeezing my eyes tight against the sudden impact I was sure would come but didn't.
"Not until we get there," Asheton whispere

"Ok, so first of all- don't think for a second I've forgotten about what you did to my family's living room. Or Nico," I said, firmly jabbing a finger into Asheton's chest. "And second, where the hell are we?"To be honest, I didn't really need him to tell me where we were, I already knew. I'd have to be some kind of idiot not to recognize a theme park when I saw it. What I was actually asking was why.Why had he brought me to a theme park in the middle of a weekday?Didn't he have work? Or what, just because he was the boss's son, he thought he could play hooky? I mean... I knew I did. But still, he didn't seem like the type. And I still had a lot of writing to do too. Just thinking about it made me want to forget I even did, though.

I've been to amusement parks before.Gone on all the rides after waiting excessive amounts of time in line just to get on them. I've ogled all the cute merch in all the park shops, just wishing I could take these home with me but not willing to pay the exorbitant prices listed on the tags. And at the end of the day, staring in awe at all the fireworks lighting up the night sky, I've realized that the throbbing in my feet and ache in my shoulders was all worth it.I've done all of that and more when I've been to amusement parks, which, now that I think of it, hasn't been in a really long time. But I've never, ever, experienced a day at a theme park quite like with Asheton.For starters, he snapped a lot of photos.

There was something seriously wrong with me today-First, the thing with Nico, I mean, I've punched him in the gut just for even daring to sass me. For what he'd done, forcing himself on me, I would've pummeled him to the ground, no mercy.And yet...I didn't.I could say it was because we were interrupted before I could even get the chance to, I could say it was because I felt bad for the guy- I could come up with a shit ton of different excuses to explain myself but the fact of the matter was that I didn't do what I normally would've and the reason was... well, I don't know.And then, as if things weren't weird enough already, I go and pull that shit

"Cash has always been a very caring person, even if she won't admit it to herself. She likes to do things her way, you know?"Nina's gaze turned soft as she drowned in the memory of some other time, some other place, perhaps the very one she was about to present."She took her friend's death very hard, blamed herself even- she was the one who'd been by Luna's side the entire way, after all. She could've fought harder, nagged more, convinced her one way or another not to listen, not to go through with it- in the end, Cash felt she'd let her friend down.""When the baby was born, it was Cash who was there, by Luna's side, holding her hand, cutting the umbilical cord. You see, Luna's family disowned her when they found out she was pregnant, so

"Hey, Cash- what are you doing?"I turned to give mom an exasperated look as I motioned to the boxes upon boxes, some full, most of them empty, nearly overtaking the floor of my bedroom."Cleaning."Her brows furrowed as she took in the sight of all the boxes nearly overflowing with the variety of trinkets I'd already stuffed into most of them. From keychains and headbands to travel mugs, collectible figures, and plushies- a whole slew of shit from the theme park Asheton had taken me to yesterday.I don't know how or when he'd managed to get all that stuff into my room and I'd been way too tired last night to deal with the mess when I came upon it after Nico left, so I just closed the door on all the cute l

"Hey!" I snapped. Both my mother and the obscenely handsome stranger already on my last nerve finally stopped talking. "Don't assume shit, got it?” My eyes shot daggers at the man daring to meet my gaze. “You don't know me. And another thing, what the hell's wrong with you? You got a thing for married older women with kids or what? What kind of ploy is this- offer them a job and they'll come running? Are you insane?!""Cash wait-"But no. I was done waiting.I was a speeding bullet on a one-way track to utter destruction, flames, and all.Her luck had run out. There was no stopping my fury this time. "What's the matter with you, huh? How are you going to just stand here and let this bastard sweet talk you like that? What about Dad?!"Mom bit her lip, her golden eyes flitting nervously from me to the stranger behind us. Good. At least she had the decency to look embarrassed after getting caught. I mean, who the hell brings their own daughter to a hook-up?! And with a man half her age

To be honest, I never once thought that something like this would happen to me. I've always been adamant about what I wanted to do with my life- what I would become. Every time someone had something to say, my family especially, about the inevitable future that awaited me if I didn't change my ways, I'd laugh in their faces. Expectations didn't have to be met. Inevitable future? Give me a break. I wouldn't be like the rest of the idiots in my family. No sir, not me.I'd rise above and conquer the curse every single one of the women in my family seemed to be plagued by. Mom, on the other hand, had other thoughts."Mark my words Cash, one day you're gonna have to bite your tongue and remember what I'm telling you now. There's no way around it, life happens and when it does it'll be when you least expect it. It'll come at you with such force you won't even realize it until it's right there in your face."How could I not roll my eyes at that? How could I not snort in derision at the ab

"Hey! Open the door, Cash! I know you're in there!"The pounding at the door just kept coming. One after another. The hollow blows against the wood kept growing louder and louder until I wasn't sure if it was a person at my door or a whole army. I chanced a glance at the time on the upper right corner of my laptop screen:12:07PMRight on time."I told you last night I'd be stopping by today to pick up the finished manuscript, didn't I? I even texted and sent you an email early this morning just to remind you. Again! So you can't tell me you forgot or some other excuse that I'm sure you're concocting right now as I speak. Now open up!"A smirk curved the corner of my lips. He never deviated from the script.In as innocent and pleasant a voice as I could muster I called out to the person assaulting my door. "Who is it?"Just as I imagined it would, the pounding at the door stopped for all of five seconds, the time it took to gather himself no doubt before the rapid-fire blows fell up
