She’s the one that got away. But I’m the guy who let her go.

I’ll admit it, I’m an idiot.

I walked away from the only girl I’ve ever loved.

I messed up. I know I don’t deserve a second chance, but I would give anything to make it right.

It’s too late. Bella’s made it abundantly clear those feelings died a long time ago. Why does she get so angry when all I’m trying to do is move on? It’s as if she’s suddenly interested in us again. Even if she is, I’m torn. The last time we tried, it almost destroyed us both.

She’s leaving soon, and my small town life is crumbling around me. I have to try. I have to see if there is still an us. I can’t let her get away again.

Given the option, she will forever be my always.
