We Are.
Summary
The music played softly on the stereo and melted into the back of my mind. The only thoughts I could process were the way he smelled, the same familiar scent, the way his muscles were tensed in the most protective way. In high school, we used to get drunk and he'd let me dance on his feet.
"My beloved monster and me, we go everywhere together..."
Here I am, at 23. My barefoot size seven feet layered on top of his chubby size elevens, swaying gently to the Eels. When we were 17, this was friendship, drunken innocence. Now? It was ecstasy. And I was doomed.
'She will always be the only thing that comes between me and the awful sting that comes from living in a world that's so damn mean..."
