He lost her once
He refuses to lose her again
Cooper
When my little brother snagged his boss's girl after getting out of prison on parole I never thought his dick would be the guiding arrow that would put my life back on track, but here we are. The domino effect that set off a chain of events which steadied my world from spinning completely out of control. When I stare into her icy blue eyes for the first time in eight extremely long years I finally feel like I can breathe again. I can feel the useless organ in my chest waking up at her proximity. That is until she walks right back out the door and out of my life.

I wasn't raised with warm and fuzzy hopes and dreams. I was made blatantly aware of the cold harsh realities of the world from a very young age. Though that didn't stop me from falling for my best friend's older brother. I couldn't fight it, I couldn't deny it. I thought he couldn't either. I thought our love was mutual, a connection laid out by the fates that shone in the stars. Instead I was made to be a fool. Of course my mother never let me forget it. I allowed myself to love once and it was a mistake I never made again.
