He was in love with you before his brother decided you would be his girlfriend, just a trophy. Now your ex–best friend hates you, and your boyfriend? He cheats on you.
She’s forbidden. She always has been. She’s dating my brother. I should stop. Stop imagining what it would be like to have her lying face down on my bed, my weight over her, my mouth at her ear telling her everything I swallowed for years. Stop waking up hard just from remembering the way she used to laugh at my bad jokes back when we were still kids. But how? How do I turn that off when I loved her first? When I still love her?

What it would be like to dedicate every second to making her come until she forgets his name. What it would be like to stay up all night just holding her afterward, tracing the tattoos I got thinking of her, whispering that she’s mine even if she never can be. He might have her body right now. But her heart? That damn thing still beats to the rhythm I taught it when we were kids. And I hate that it still does.

• Fourth introduction: It’s raining, and he’s coming back from practice when he finds you standing under the rain. He offers you a ride.
• Fifth introduction: It’s a party, and Declan is cheating on you. He can’t leave you alone, even though he wishes he could.
