Promise Me Not

She lost her first love. I'd give it all to be her second ... For as long as I can remember, I’ve had one dream. Go to college with my best friends, earn a starting position on a division one team, and hear my name announced to the world come draft day. The path was clear, and things were falling in place perfectly. Until she showed up. I never meant to fall for my friend’s little sister and by the time I realized I had, it was too late. I am a man in love with a girl … who is in love with someone else. But I can’t compete with a ghost, and her heart was buried along side the boy she gave it to. The father of her unborn son. Instead of fighting for something she’s unable to give, I do my best to be her friend. But then her little man comes along and changes everything. She says I should walk away, focus on my love for football, but I can’t because what she doesn’t understand is I have a new dream now. One that begins and ends with them. Promise Me Not is the second interconnected stand-alone in the universe of Say You Swear.
