It felt like they were stuck in the past while I tried to live in the future!....there wasn't even a TV at home!! When I finally became of age I decided that it was my time....so I went to University and stayed on campus. My parents were not happy about it but with help of my granny I managed to convince them in the end by making a deal that I'll call them every day at least once....a small price to pay for my freedom I thought, so i took the deal.

All goes well until the moment my secret crush comes out in the open and my family shows their true colors and HE starts changing his mind!....... I thought he wanted me but now he backs down, telling me that I'm too innocent for his dark world.......fighting with his own heart between wanting me and not wanting me...... And me well i don't know what HE did to me but it seems like some of his darkness already crawled it's way into my heart making me want him, need him, CRAVE him more then ever!!
