We need to boost each other to get to the top. It is much more effective than stepping on each other.

My tongue ran over my lower lip and I could taste the sin. It was thick and heavy in the air, and it made my head swim as I gazed into Abels ocean-colored eyes. I wondered whether he tasted it too, whether his heart was pounding in his chest. I wondered most of all if it was artificial - a haze of adoration brought on by the pills. It had been so long since Id wanted that; I didnt trust my own thoughts, but if felt too good to care.

Emma is just a distraction. A shiny new toy that I can’t have, so I want her. Fuck, do I ever want her. - William Honor (Honor Thy Teacher)
