Then LeVan’s phone rang.
We both ignored them, but they rang again. Then a third time.
The fourth time LeVan’s phone rang, he sheepishly answered.
It was his mother.
She told him we needed to get ourselves to the hospital immediately.
LeVan’s brother was in a car crash.
And so was Nicky.
It was my fault.
In Nicky’s mind, it was time for the two of us to leave. He was tired of waiting. I’d let him down, leaving him alone with her. God knew what she’d said to him. According to LeVan’s mother, Nicky took my mother’s car, intent on leaving for good, and the short drive less than two miles from home ended in the worst way.
He hit a parked vehicle with three teenagers sitting inside.
It was a head-on collision, and even with the car parked, he changed the very course of all the lives inside, and of their families.
One boy was dead.
Nicky and another teen were clinging to life.
By some stroke of horrific luck, LeVan’s younger brother was inside the parked car too. He was injured.
In all likelihood, our families were about to wage war on each other.
Because of me.
I chose LeVan, but in doing so, I created a ripple effect that would spread through our lives in ways I didn’t believe possible.
We had one very special week.
A week of perfection.
And I made the mistake of thinking it would last.
But people like us never got lifetimes of happiness.
We didn’t get happily-ever-after endings.
As we sped toward the hospital, all I could think about was that our fairy tale was cursed to be more like a tragedy. It started out sweet and ended with more pain than we started off with. It left us raw and ragged, and resentful that life could be so cruel to have given us a taste, only to take it all away again.
That was us.
And the tragedy was just beginning.
This Story Continues in RISK ME
Blurb - Risk Me
LeVan
She was mine before I ever laid eyes on her.
It took an instant to know we were meant to be.
She wanted an escape and my arms were wide open.
She endured a life of pain. I could give her solace.
She saw baggage. I saw hope and connection.
But most of all, to her, I was forbidden.
I wanted her more because of it.
And just when I thought I had her, we were ripped apart.
One innocent act to escape forced our families onto a collision course.
I was fooled into believing she could risk everything for me.
Her hands were tied.
She was more of a prisoner than I'd even thought possible.
She was just out of reach.
And watching, waiting and wishing wouldn’t bring her back to me.

But people like us never got lifetimes of happiness.
Moments, maybe.
We didn’t get fairy tale endings.
Our love story was destined to end in tragedy.
