That is, until the really hot lead investigator of his case moves in across the hall. ~ "Perfect," he tells me, tone low. My heart practically stops beating in my chest. "I meant you're perfect." Decari doesn't know. He has no idea how untrue that is, how far off. He doesn't know, and he can't know. He can't ever fucking find out! He just can't, and I'm terrified that if I let this continue any longer... I'll get too comfortable. Too secure. I can never allow myself to doubt his loyalty to the law. If I'm to give in, I need to promise myself that. I take a step forward, and we're so close like this that I can feel the heat of his body. I finally move my gaze up to his eyes, which look a lot darker like this.

The world seems to disappear as I look into his eyes, deciding to warn him one last time.

But through this story, I wanted to give myself the happy ending that life didn't grant me.To anyone reading, I hope you find joy, reflection, and perhaps a touch of healing within these pages. Thank you for sharing in this part of me.
