We really didn’t know too much about each other. Just the basics. All I know is when I laid eyes on her I wanted her. And when I was inside of her I needed her. I never wanted to let her go. But she made it clear last night before we went to sleep that this was going to be a onetime thing. She wanted to forget she ever knew him. He wanted to be as close to her as her skin, yet as distant as enemies. After their night together, they are forced to be together for two months because of her accident and his career.
