Pretty Broken Duet

I might be the most promising quarterback in college football today, but once I was just a boy desperately in love with the wrong girl, one I’d very much like to win back. She blocks me better than any player on the field, but to figure out my best play, first I need to understand how we got here. We have been apart longer than we were together but we can’t seem to stop torturing each other. Every guy she touches or allows to touch her is like a knife right to my heart. Not to be outdone, I play her game. No one will ever accuse me of giving less than everything.

I promised myself I would finally walk away from Tessa and not look back. All we ever did was hurt each other. We weren’t strong enough to fight for what we had and too weak to let it go. Or so I thought. The truth was I was the weak one, and she had been fighting for us the entire time. Now she’s letting me go and making promises to another man. That revelation brought me to my knees, and that’s where I’ll stay until I can convince her to try one more time. If we’re going to stand a chance I have to convince her that some promises were made to be broken.
