I always hoped I'd run into Jackson again. I didn't think it was ever going to happen, but I always hoped. So the day I found his lost kitten felt like fate. I didn't even know he was in town, and now I was going to be seeing him again so that I could return his adorable cat.
But it's been years since we last spoke and things didn't exactly end well. I used to be in love with him, and I still have so many feelings, but can I forgive him? He's been wonderful to me in the past but he also hurt me deeply. I can't deny, though, that the bond between us is still strong. At least, it is for me. I can't be sure how he feels. Especially considering how he left...
I was such a fool to ever let him go.
I haven't been the best person, I will fully admit to that. I've made a lot of mistakes in my life, but leaving Grant behind was by far the biggest. He was my best friend, I've never been closer to anyone else.
And that's the scary part for me. My biggest fear about returning to my hometown to help out my family was that I'd run into him again. I don't want to get close to him again because it might mean losing him. And I already feel crushed from losing him the first time.
