𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒑𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒆 𝑮𝒓𝒂𝒄𝒆
I was the sweet girl who wore her vulnerability on her sleeve. The writer, the poet, a journalist, and a computer geek who kept to myself. Except when it came to him.
   He was the star athlete and my best friend. He had a way about him that made me feel safe. He was my rock and I was his escape.
    I fell for him knowing he’d be leaving after high school. I didn't know how much I’d miss him. Why didn't I tell him?
   Engaged and living a good life. I went on to be a successful author and social media coordinator.  Until I wasn't.
   I thought I had moved on.

In high school, I was the captain of the hockey team. Being drafted was a sure thing. When my dream came true I was thrust into the spotlight, gaining fame but it wasn't like I thought it would be, without her nothing felt right.
   She was different, special. Things were easier with her in my life. I wanted to protect her and I needed her more than she knew. I loved her more than I realized. Why didn't I tell her?
   I thought I could move on.

Years later fate has seen a way to throw us back together on a cruise ship.
   Will this be our second chance or will the ghosts of our past keep us from getting close again?
   The future we never had together could possibly be ours… if the fear of being broken again doesn't get in our way.
