TopherI'd never imagined I would find someone who completed me, just to lose her. I'd never imagined the love I felt could be overshadowed by the deepest depression I'd ever lived through. Two years had passed since she touched my life, since she was taken from me. I was afraid to let anyone else close, afraid to lose them like I lost her, and then Destiny crashed into my life. She was nothing like Ciera, and that's what attracted me. The more she pushed me away, the more I wanted her. I knew I was playing with fire, but I liked the burn.DestinyHe was so unexpected, nothing like the guys I would normally go for, but he was persistent. He saw the ugliness inside of me, and he accepted it; he nurtured it. I'd been looking out for me for so long that, when he came into the picture, I couldn't accept it. It was too good to be true. He was too good to be true, too good for someone like me. But when shit hit the fan, Topher was there by my side, holding me up. He didn't run away when things got tough, and that meant the world to me. I wasn't Ciera; I didn't want to be her. I just wanted a chance to show him the love I knew he deserved.
