The former star quarterback, who didn't know I existed, is home for good, and I've caught his eye.

I didn't think I'd ever interact with Bryce.

We didn't in high school, even though he played football with my twin brother. My long time crush never knew I was there.

Now, he's home and working at Out of the Ashes with me.

Even worse, he catches me when I fall off a ladder and has determined to make sure I'm taken care of.

I'm stuck with him.

But I don't know how long I can keep my previous attraction to him at bay. Especially when he's my ride to and from work.
