I knew this day would come eventually—Jake Pierce had returned home.
After playing football for the University of Alabama and spending his first few years in the NFL in Florida, Jake was back in Massachusetts to play for the Boston Bluecoats.
Which also meant, I could no longer run from a past I’d been so desperate to forget.
Jake was my best friend.
Keyword: was.
He was the first freshman in the history of Fox Hollow High to make the varsity team. I was the team’s photographer.
And…I’m the one that broke his heart.
