Hardin Lake. What can I say about Hardin Lake? He has always been the love of my life and my brother's best friend. Ever since we were kids I've only ever had eyes for him. I thought maybe he felt that way too until he went to high school. After that he pretty much ignored me. I've had to endure heart ache after heart ache from him. Watching him and his girlfriend. Literally, all the time since our families do everything together. This year will be different. I'm done with Hardin Lake. Atleast, I think I am. He's acting all wierd and every time I shut him out he barges back in. I want to be done with Hardin but it appears he's not done with me........ Tessa is everything I've ever wanted. Her brother is my best friend though. I made him a promise and I can't go back on that. Hannah was a great distraction for awhile but she while never be my goldilocks. Now that I've had a taste how can I go back? Now that I've had her how can I let her go? “Sit down Tessa.” When I sat down he continued. “Tessa, I have loved you for years. That summer when I brought you that cake for your birthday, Sylas made me promise to keep you off limits. I don’t know why I made the promise. I knew then that I loved you but I didn’t think you felt the same way. I dated Hannah for years as a distraction and I never realized that I was hurting you when I did that. I thought you didn’t feel that way about me. I ended things with Hannah so she could find her true love. Mine is staring at me and I don’t want to let her go. Seeing you with Nick, his hands on you, his lips on you, it makes me sick. I’m going to tell your brother today how I feel and I will deal with the aftermath later. I love you Tessa. It has always been you. It will always be you. You are my alpha and omega goldilocks. You were the beginning of me and you’ll be the end of me.” And then she disappeared without a trace.
