An enemies to lovers, second chance romance

I find refuge in the water. I find peace in the sand beneath my feet.

All of that is threatened when he shows up to work with me for the day.

I haven't seen the victim of my bullying, Harlow, since we graduated high school.

I've grown up a lot. Matured even more. And seeing him floods me with guilt.

I don't want to work with him. Can't face what I've done every single day.

The thing is, Chief isn't going to let our past keep us from working together, and he's made it clear there will be consequences if either of us fights this.

I figured I could just ignore him and go home each day. Maybe soon, Chief would partner us up with someone else.

Yet everything changes when I witness him almost get hit by an out-of-control bicycle. He looks at me like I hold the answers to world peace in my eyes and in my touch.

I'm not sure what's going to happen to us, but despite our past, I can't bring myself to stay away.

I need to find out what's going on with Harlow.

I just hope he'll let me make everything right, even if I don't deserve the opportunity.
