We were just kids when we met. . .

He was the boy from down the beach. I was the transplant from Tennessee.

He became my best friend. I became his best girl.

And then . . . it became us.

We shared things . . . our dreams, our secrets . . . first kisses and then our hearts.

Seth Drake was my everything. My first crush. My first love. My forever passion. Until that day when everything changed through no fault of ours.

I was crushed. We were crushed.
