Prologue: The Return

"You don't get it Colby! This isn't some fanfiction written on wattpad, it's reality and in reality we can't just kiss and makeup. I can't just look into your eyes, get a fuzzy feeling in my stomach and say that I can forget everything from the past. In reality, I can't forgive you for breaking down the walls I had up. Second chances aren't just handed out,"
"Why not?" he asks, stepping closer to me. His hand gently touches my cheek. I smack it away.
"Because giving a second chance means forgiving and forgetting and I just can't do that. Not after what you did."
