Ten years ago, I made the biggest mistake of my life.

When Hawke left for the NHL and my hockey dreams went up in smoke, I ghosted my best and longest friend. It made sense at the time, but there hasn't been a day where I haven't missed him.

So when we run into each other again, and his only response is "Do I know you?", I know I deserve it. But I refuse to let one mistake keep us apart forever. Especially when he has bigger problems, and I'm in a position to help him.

All I wanted this offseason was to spend my time relaxing-not getting an emergency phone call from Mom to come home. My hometown is full of too many memories of me and Tai so I avoid returning there as much as I can.

But now I have one more memory to add to the list: my high school girlfriend.

And the kid we apparently had together.

Kasen hates me and thinks I abandoned them, and my only way to get to him is through his coach. My ex-best friend. The friend that has been impossible to forget. No matter how much I've tried.
