He had claimed to love her and had promised to give her all she wanted of him if only she'd let him love her from afar. She didn't want that. She wanted him to love with her, near her. Modern AU, T eventual M.

    Summary

    “Why do you do this.”

    It’s not really a question anymore. Maybe it’s his way of making sure she remembers that he won’t be held responsible for her heart. She’d rather he not remind her.

    Still, she answers as she always has. “Do you want me to stop?”

    “No,” he says, pulling her to him. “I suppose not.”

    Summary

    His name is Erik, and he picks you up from your apartment in a red car with plush leather seats that are soft to the touch when you slide in. The chromium exterior gleams, a glossy coat of vermilion red. “I see I should’ve worn the red dress,” you say after the proper social niceties have been exchanged. “Would’ve matched the car.”
