It started out with a kiss, how did it end up like this. It was only a kiss. It was only a kiss. After Drew Gooden was killed in a tragic car accident, Danny is left with a screaming internal monolog and tears that are too stubborn to fall. Danny had grieved and lost before, but nothing could quite compare to whatever inside him he had lost alongside Drew. When he feels the memories he owned with Drew begin to wilt like rotting flowers, Danny is surprised with a journal that once belonged to Drew. Upon opening the first page, he is met with entries dating back to 2019, recounting their days on tour. As he reads through, the entries recall hidden memories of the nights on tour where he fell in love with his best friend. And maybe, just maybe, such entries could help Danny overcome his best friend's death. Completed - 22nd January 2022 Edits: Grammar corrections.
