Corrode

A standalone second chance romance.

It didn't matter how young we were.

We just knew.

Forever was stamped on our hearts, no matter what forces tried to keep us apart.

They tried, and they failed.

We were happy.

We lived, we loved, and we made plans.

But as the years went by, we watched helplessly as those plans faded into dusty aspirations.

Yet we endured.

Time and time again, we came out stronger.

Until life threw the ultimate test our way, and he surrendered.

Defeated and desperate, he made a choice.

One that tore all our promises in two—leaving me pregnant, alone, and terrified.

Now he's free, and that love is still there.

It's everything else that's changed.
