Jordan I met the love of my life when we were fourteen. One conversation was all it took to lock me in the friend zone—for eight long years. I watched her fall in love with other people.
Watched her build a future that didn’t include me. And I waited. Now she’s back, broken and running, and I’m done pretending I only want her friendship.
She’s always been mine—whether she knew it or not—and this time, I’m not letting her walk away. I didn’t wait eight years just to lose her now.
Mackenzie The life I spent eight years building collapsed overnight—leaving me heartbroken, unemployed, and without a place to land. So I ran. A new city. A fresh start.
Distance from everything that hurts. What I didn’t expect was him. My first love. My best friend. The boy who always knew me better than anyone else.
He becomes my refuge, my steady ground while I piece myself back together—but he isn’t offering friendship anymore. He wants forever. The problem?
His forever might already include someone else—and I don’t know if my heart can survive losing him twice.
