"I know we broke up, but.., " he whispers in my ear, trailing his finger lightly along my arm. He places a soft kiss on my collarbone, making a shiver course through me.
He tilts his head so he's staring straight into my eyes. His pupils dilate as...

Gray's Pov
***Flashback***
I stand in front of the pharmaceutical store, contemplating whether or not to go in with my bruised up face. Jelly had given me bruises because I made a mistake while delivering some goods, and I wasn't allowed to fight back because I was 'learning'.
After much thought, I push through the heavy doors but immediately let them close back when I see her.
Dove Kelch
I glance at her through the transparent glass of the store and find myself smiling when I see her laughing and chatting with her friend.
She had the prettiest smile and carried herself most elegantly. One of the most beautiful girls I've ever seen. My breath never ceases to hitch in my throat whenever we coincidentally lock eyes in the hallways at school. She just had that effect on me.
I stare at my bruised up face and flinch. Throwing my hoodie over my head, I walk into the store to grab my mum's drugs and a pack of cigarettes for myself.
While getting the drugs, I couldn't help but overhear Dove's conversation with her friend when my name pops up.
"Do you think Gray stone would be at the party tonight?" Her voice comes out silvery and smooth.
"It's Gray stone. He never misses a chance to get high and get laid, " her friend replies with a snort.
They were on the other side of the shelve, making it a bit easier for me to see their faces. I couldn't help but lean closer to them.
Dove bites her lips nervously and sighs deeply. "I'm going for it tonight, " She grins.
"You're going to ask him out? You know Gray Stone doesn't do relationships, " her friend raises her brows.
For Dove, I would.
"Well, I'm not going to ask him out. I'll just make him ask me out, " Dove replies with a small smile.
Her friend shakes her head and laughs. "Gray is bad news, Dove. The only good thing he has going for him is his good looks and the football team."
"Well, you can add me to the list, " Dove giggles.
I smile and stare down at my hands, feeling an unfamiliar surge build up in my chest.
"He smokes too, and word is he's in a gang, " Her friend replies.
I guess her friend hates me, seeing as she doesn't miss a chance to bash me.
