Yesterday was one of the craziest days of hs to the lows and everything in between

I find the apartment of my dreams I try to beat the shit out of a woman who alht to his knees when his father discovers his darkest secret

It’s a fact We just…can’t

We ency Just a fluid, delicious connection of bodies until ere both spent, falling asleep in each other’s arms like the corniest irl in the world I know irls would think I’m crazy Drew Callahan is definitely not what’s expected He’s troubled He has issues, issues that aren’t resolved yet
