"Will you be happy?"
My smile stretches my face. I can't contain it. "I already am." I've proven to myself that I could reach this point without a crutch. I'm sober. I'm healthy. I'm so goddamn alive.
Ryke smiles back, like he's proud of me.
"It's yours, little brother. I believe in you."
For months, those last four words are all I've ever wanted to hear. From Ryke, they mean everything to me.

ANIME MIE!!!

GARRISON ZITTO POTRESTI DIVENTARE UNO DEI MY BELOVED

They've been to hell and back for each other, and I think they'd both be willing to take a second travel if they had to.

MY FAV BROTHERS!!! FOREVER!!!

"Your name is on her ass," I state blankly.
"I'm so fucking in love with her," is all he says. And I believe every word.

RYKEDAISY MY SHAYLASSSS

I decided, early on, that I won't lie for anything anymore. It's not healthy. It's not worth the pain. And if I want to live my life as a better, more whole person, this is what I have to do. It's like I can breathe with every sentence. I am no longer dreading my future. For the first time, I yearn for tomorrow and cherish yesterday and live for today. It's peace that no one will take from me.

ANIMA MIAAAAA

Ryke gives me a glare. "Why don't you write a fucking book?" he says. "You could call it: Perks of Dating a Female Sex Addict."
"Or you could write one," I shoot back, rising to my feet. "Perks of Having the Hots for a Sixteen-Year-Old Supermodel and Having to Wait until She Turns Eighteen, Only to be Cock-Blocked by Your Bastard Half-Brother." | flash a bitten smile.

"You're my liability BECAUSE I love you. The night you relapsed, I thought you were going to die." He pauses. “...and that fact nearly crippled me. I couldn't even drive, Lo. I care about you, what happens to you, and it's a weakness any way I look at it. Like your father once asked, what do I get out of it? I told him the truth. I get your friendship. That's all I want."

LA MIA SCENA PREFERITA

"He loves me."
I can't help but smile, and I kiss Lo quickly on the lips. I want to say: you're easily lovable, Loren Hale. But sadly, that's not true for most people he meets. I fell in love with Lo like a little girl opening
her heart to magic. It always seemed surreal until the moment it became true.

Maybe some people don't deserve second chances. But I'm worthy of this moment and this girl and this life I live and the one I created.
No one can tell me otherwise. Because the minute they place our baby on Lily's chest is the minute that I feel a piece of me that I'd been keeping submerged.

LOREN HALE TI MERITI IL MONDO INTEROOOO
