The Best Chance by Elena Monroe

HUNTER:
I was unwavering. I’m handcuffed to who I’m supposed to be.
I’m the guy you don’t take a chance on.
I’m the guy who has all the best intentions and none of the graceful follow through.
I’m the guy your dad hates and your mom still fantasizes about during their stale moments of passion.
At least, I used to be all of those things until the girl I loved from a safe distance decided I was too much of risk.
I used to be all those things until I saw Addi’s poisonous red lips taunting me to hurt a little bit more.
She had been chewed up and spit out by everyone who was supposed to love her.
A girl full of destructive risks was going to make me the best chance she ever took.

ADDILEIGH:
I used to vie for my parents approval, I never wished my perfect sister any good wishes, and let the voice of insecurities become a bitch.
I’m no longer her shadow of imperfection.
I’m the girl you want a wild night with even when I giggle and tell you I’m not that kind of girl.
I’m the girl who has a chip on my shoulder, filler in my lips, and a master list of all the corrupt things I want to try before I die.
Get drunk at a college party? Check.
Sleep with a married man? Check.
Fall in love? That is going to be the most corrupt thing I have ever done.
Convince someone to love me, every rotten part.
