Who We Love

I grew up knowing that the way I love is a sin.

But how can something so wrong feel so blessedly right?

Some people can’t drive fifty-five. Me?

I’ve never done simple.

But after Thea and Tristan came into my life, everything fell into place. Thea and Tristan make me whole. We’re in love. Or…I thought we were. Are we?

It was the music that broke her.

Shattered her.

Something about the music.

Tristan and I would do anything to lift the burden weighing her soul so she can heal.

But she has to trust us with her secrets.

Even if the truth that’s destroying her from the inside out strikes at the heart of the Decker family. Like the sucker punch that comes out of nowhere, drawing blood that the media is salivating for.

Me and Thea.

Thea and Tristan.

Tristan and me.

Somewhere in the eye of this emotional hurricane is the unicorn I have to believe exists. Because without hope and trust, forever doesn’t exist for any of us.

It’s as simple—and as complicated—as that.
