Thick & Thin

Joshua Black.

What can I say about him?

He was my best friend until he wasn't.

He was my childhood until I was no longer a child.

Now he's something else entirely.

A man instead of a boy—a soldier instead of a high school quarterback.

He's forbidden thoughts and secret desires.

Our situation has changed and so have I.

I'm no longer the love-sick tomboy he left behind. I'm a woman with needs, a secret, and an extra fifty pounds.

We promised through thick and thin, but I'm not sure how thin the lines are or how thick he's willing to go.
