Posessive. Obsessive. Submissive. Agressive.

Four words that each describe the toxic entanglement that has weaved itself into the lives of two unexpecting strangers. They barely knew eachother, then fate brought them together. An odd and unfitting match that ended up tearing them apart till they come crawling back to the one thing they know. Eachother.

He had her hooked from the second he pulled out his guitar for the first time, and the word obsessed was not strong enough to describe his infatuation with her. He was addicted to her like she was a drug, his own personal brand of heroine. They spent every waking second - except when they were attempting a break after another insane argument - together, running through the castle's halls at the stroke of midnight, smoking at the astronomy tower or at the owlery, swimming in the black lake whenever the giant squid was asleep, late nights in his dorm as he played the guitar for her, and falling asleep in eachothers arms while attempting to study. They were eachother's bestfriend and worst enemy.

He left her room in a aggrivated storm of aggression, secretly crying tears of regret in the later hours of the night. They hadnt spoken since. But he knew it wasnt long before one of them caved and let the other back in.

Soon enough she came tip toeing into his room, careful not to wake his dormmates, and slipped out on the balcony beside him. ‟You came,” he mumbled, moving aside on the bench that sat on his balcony, making room for her.
