Sacrifice, heartbreak, and a second chance

Skylar

I did what I had to do for Maverick’s sake. Sometimes love means letting go. And since he’s living his dream and playing in the NHL, I’ve never doubted my decision.

But he’s furious, standing in front of me and figuring out my secret.

I want to do the right thing, but he’s right here, close enough to touch.

I can’t resist him.

Maverick

I don’t know if I should kiss him or punch him. He left me with nothing, and I won’t force myself on him.

One day we were dreaming of our future together, and the next he disappeared. We were starry-eyed kids, but I was in love with him.

Still in love with him.

I’m not letting him go without a fight.

But I didn’t count on fighting my Sky.
