Nothing Feels Better

We said it would only be for the summer…

Jesse Hernandez is everything I shouldn’t want.
My too-charming, too-young neighbor with a crooked smile and a future full of promise.
He’s headed to med school in a few months, and I’m juggling motherhood and a reputation I can’t afford to ruin.

It was a spark I should’ve smothered the second it caught fire,
but I didn't, and now he’s everywhere.
In my space. In my thoughts. In my bed.
He looks at me like I’m not broken, like I’m his,
and I'm starting to want things I shouldn't.

I know how this story ends.
In whispers and judgment. In sacrifices and heartbreak.
In walking away from something I never should’ve touched.

But I’ve never been someone’s first choice,
and Jesse makes me feel like I am.
Like maybe I deserve more.
And that’s exactly what makes him so dangerous.
