And while my choices are not ones she would have made, she understands why I’ve done what I have. While our lives have wildly diverged, her support of me has never wavered, not even for a moment. I guess the first person I have to thank is Melanie, my bestie from home.

Honestly, I had the help of a lot of people. Molded me.įor as long as I can remember, I wanted to escape the suffocating dreariness of my surroundings. When it comes down to it, they get a lot of credit for the woman I have become. I am a completely new person, formed in part by my quest to be something other than what I was originally destined for, and especially due to the guys’ influence. But it doesn’t begin to describe my feelings. That I’ve fallen for them-Max, Rowan, and Greyson-is no secret. To say I never thought I’d see the day when my parents wanted to spend time with me apart from reiterating how I was a sinner destined for the depths of hell, is an understatement of proportion even bigger than my affection for the guys. Actually, they didn’t just call, although that was a surprise in itself, but they also invited me to dinner. It took some time, but my parents rattled the universe and beyond when they called me. Seems I said goodbye a little too quickly. Rowan jumps onto the bed and pulls me to him. “Sounds like you sealed the deal, man,” Greyson says, offering Max a high-five. We burst out laughing, and seconds later we’re joined by Rowan and Greyson.
