We used to be friends.
We loved the same things and then suddenly, June stopped talking to me. She wouldn't even tell me what was wrong, so I moved on. Hey, it was eighth grade, I'll admit I wasn't particularly mature then.
Years later I'm still thinking about her and wondering what could have been. When I see we're teaching at the same school I know I need a second chance with her. But when I see the pain in her face I know she'll never let me close.
I never planned to teach middle school English, but here I am and I love it. There's nowhere I'd rather be. Then I hear him calling me by my old nickname and I shudder. The one man who destroyed my trust in all others is here, teaching with me. That's okay – I've never let anyone hurt me since him and I'm sure not going to let him get under my skin again. No matter how many late nights we need to work together.
No matter how many times I wake up hot and bothered by my dreams of him.
