He’s my older brother’s friend and teammate. Off-limits, unavailable and forbidden.
There are times I wish I was someone other than the shy, geeky, college virgin that I am.
I also wish that my crush on Van Gerard wasn’t one sided and that he looked at me as something other than his best friend’s little sister. But he’s firmly drawn the line in the friendship territory, even though there are times I think he might feel the same way about me. Then I remember that Van has a long-time girlfriend and we’re strictly in the friend zone.
But I want more than just friends.
When Van’s life is turned upside down, I’m there to comfort him.
To break his fall.
I’m his shoulder to cry on.
I will give him anything he needs, even if he only considers me a rebound.
