She’s all woman now, innocent and beautiful, and sweet like the candy apples they sell at the fair every summer. And my mouth waters every time I see her. She may be my childhood friend, but it’s time I tell her how much she means to me. It’s time I show Nora that we were meant to be together from day one. Nora Toby Maxwell wasn’t just my friend, he was the man I’d fallen hopelessly in love with. With a big belt buckle, polished cowboy boots, and silver spurs, I’d known him my whole life and had loved him just as long. As an adult now I understand that holding back how I felt was foolish. Life is too short to worry about the what ifs. Time to cross the line and tell Toby how I really felt. Note: This one is for all the safety readers out there!
