Page 17 of Love Lies

I’ll do whatever it takes

To make you want me

I’ll make no mistakes

My pretty little monster

Condemned me to hell

I promised not to, but I fell

So, deceive me

Abuse me and tell me your love lies

Tell me you’ll stay

Whisper I’m yours that’s all it will take.

Tears streamed down my face, and I pulled him closer to me. I had never been so happy to be wrong. “Does this mean you don’t want me to leave?”

I didn’t know what kind of future we had together, but I wanted it. There was no denying that truth. There were a lot of things to work out before we found any semblance of normalcy, but I was willing to put in the work if it meant being with Skip. Like many, I’d made a deal with the devil, but my outcome wasn’t to dwell in purgatory for the rest of my life. Skip had saved me from myself, and I would spend everyday from here on out thanking him.
