Bait
by M. Mabie
He was trouble from the start, but I couldn't resist. [She was the best kind of trouble. The kind that was so wrong, it felt right.] I’ve tried and failed to stay away from him. [I’ve done everything in my power to make her mine and keep her.] He’s almost impossible to say no to. [She never tells me yes.] We’re always fighting. [When we’re not fighting, we’re… well… making up.] He makes me laugh so hard. [I miss her laugh the most.] I'm a liar. [She knows the truth, but won’t admit it.] Sometimes, I wish I'd never met him. [I wish we could meet all over again. I'd do better.] His girlfriend knows. [The guy she’s with is a fool.] I’ll never love anyone like I love him. [She doesn’t love me enough to choose us.] It was the wrong place. [It was the wrong time.] It should have been him. [It will always be her.]
