Every Broken Promise

If you asked if I wanted to return to my hometown, the answer would be no.
But on a deeper level, I would tell you that I was too scared to face my fears.

Going back home sucked, but I was determined to make it work.

Stepping on a few toes while doing my new job at the local newspaper? Not a problem.
Handling old classmates who still held a grudge against me? No issue.
But seeing Tyler Kane's face again? That was a different story.

Now that we were both in the same small town, avoiding my once-best friend was no longer an option.
Even worse, he'd integrated himself into the life I left behind, not to mention my family adored him.

After all this time, I couldn't let go of the grudge that I still harbored against him.
While I'd always been there for him, the one night I needed him the most, Tyler hadn't been there for me.

I had fallen for my best friend while he had put me in the friend zone.

And now, even though it seems like he might be starting to feel the same way, all I can think about is that Tyler Kane has broken every promise he ever made.
