Tarnished Memories

Ember

Wesley Barrett was my everything. Things were perfect, we were making plans for the future, I just had to finish High School.

But then he cheated on me. 

My parents turned on me.

And I ran as far away as I could get with zero intention of ever returning.

Seven years later a phone call from my brother had me heading back to the small town I grew up in. 

Everything was exactly the same as I remembered it. And the man who wrecked me still made my heart flutter.

A broken heart sent me a thousand miles from home. I thought I knew what love was. And then I met her. Ember Davis was everything I never knew I needed. 

She saw me in a way no one ever had, and I was ready to give her the world. Then one mistake destroyed everything. 

She ran, and I had no choice but to face my new reality. A reality without her.

It's been seven years, and she's back. Things aren't what they appear to be and it's my chance to explain, if only she would let me.
