Anything Worth Having is Worth Fighting For…
He wasn’t exactly a stranger, but I wouldn’t call him a friend. But for some odd reason, one I can’t seem to wrap my head around, Dre is determined to change that. His request was simple, Get to know me. And for reasons I can’t explain, I conceded. His simple request has spiraled into something neither of us could’ve imagined. But what he doesn’t know is—I am incapable of giving him what he really wants.
Who knew building a friendship would be this difficult? I’ll admit, it wasn’t exactly my idea, more a promise I made to my best friends. But my request was genuine. I meant it when I told Rocky, I can show you better than I can tell you. What I didn’t expect is what she’s shown me. She is flawed, scarred by her nontraditional upbringing, and guarded. But that has made me fight that much harder. I fought to win her trust then her friendship. But what I didn’t bargain for—was the fight for her heart.
