MADDIE
KNOX
"You would have been a little bit perfect if you were to lose weight more."
That was what my temporary boyfriend, also known as douchebag of the year, stated to me when we finished our movie lunch.
"You do like me anyway, I mean, what's not to like?" I gave Silas Parker my charm smile, the one I used in all of the high school drags.
"Yea," he dazed off into my fluttering eyes, his face nearing mine. "You're right, you are an amazing piece of art,"
"I am, and you're lucky that you are going to screw that piece of art up just like she wants to," I gestured to my white sheer dress that complimented my blonde beach waves.
Although Silas was easy to manipulate with, I was on the brink of getting totally bored of him. He was easy to the touch while I craved on a big, hard challenge to sink my teeth into.
We were about to go at it like animals, but a tiny rascal interrupted with a knock. "Are you guys naked in there?" he asked, his lanky hands covered his eyes when he barged into my room.
"No, but we were gonna," I replied to my young brother, who was the geekiest he could get. He wouldn't stop talking my ear off about the new time machine he built for his science project.
Lucas Knox was the only family I had. For a bright youngster who lived thirteen years right into the creating world, he was a deep anxious person, who had to spend the rest of his life listening to me talk about my glorious characteristics.
He was forever my miniature rascal, anyway.
"I wanted to tell you that I will be out with Braden and Sam for our project in the library, so don't wait up on me." He notified, Silas rolled his eyes and groaned against my pillow at the intervention of my brother.
He was a quarterback. What was I expecting other than a jerk meatball?
I kissed Lucas on the head, and he made sure to wipe my lipstick off when he stormed downstairs to his friends.
"See, I am doable," I flicked open my buttons on my teal shirt to show off what I had been working on, flipping my hair to the side and giving him a confident pose, Silas gaped at my new light abs on my pale skin.
"Maddie, you are a goddess," he praised, and my sexy smirk got bigger.
He was a good boy, indeed.
"That I am." I dived into the craved romance, everything and everyone was under my control.

After I dumped the quarterback and got my fix, I decided on a hot soothing shower, rubbing lotion all over my body for a new catch.
I was a relentless beast, the epitome of every man's dream. That, and sometimes girls as well.
With my addictive cerulean irises and my lucrative smile, I got what I want with a snap and no questions asked. I was on a roll with these high school boys, but none of them seemed to capture my interest yet.
Ohio was bare of events; winter was the most boring season with no fun whatsoever. I loved summer for the sake of tanned herculean babes that went for jogs along the shore. Luckily, I distracted myself with my favourite creative writing course that got offered to me by Ohio State High.
I was a spunk when it came down to my s****l writings, I even made Mrs. Elaine blush shades of red I never had seen before.
Whistling while putting on my black jumper and thick leggings going to dry-blowing my heavenly curls, my eyes went to the humble TV in my room that showed the rare newest incidents of today.
My heart soared at the image of the mysterious guy that popped up on the screen as my eyes fed on his name that was written under his face. He was exactly what I had wanted.
A walking challenge.
The chiselled structure of his face and the raging midnight orbs made me all the more interested when I sat across the screen to read into his story more. It was as if the devil stared into my soul rather than him.
After the segment in which it stated that the Ohio police were on the lookout for the masked men and the frightened tourists claiming to never return here for their ski trips, I was oddly calmed down at his picture, from his defined roman nose to his dark eyebrows to his rich brown hair.
Everything about him invited me in. I had to find that guy. As if the TV obeyed my thoughts, they mentioned that he was in the community hospital for unstable people.
This was much better than the course.
I closed the TV off and hurried to put on my burgundy uggs, tying my hair into a soft ponytail before grabbing my car keys and hurling myself out of the door when evening descended, I closed the door to the house near our school and went to the car with my phone in my back pocket.
I ignited my red mini cooper and got my phone out on the passenger seat, sending a wink at myself through the rearview mirror at how appealing I looked before I drove through the piles of snow.
My heart accelerated at the blinding lights that I started to see through the darkness. Thankfully, the hospital was only ten minutes away and I was on the hunt.
He was an indescribable sin. I wanted all of him now.
With a Cheshire grin, I stopped the car right in front of the hospital and got out to the cool wind of December, I was ecstatic to meet him in person.
I ran my hands on my silky dried waves when I strolled inside, only to see a line of splotched blood on the floor and my eyes went up to the sinister hottie.
