I’m in love with my best friend. The problem? He doesn’t love me back.
Five years ago, on the night of our high school graduation, I handed Jordan my heart, and he handed me a country song’s worth of heartbreak and rejection.
Now, after returning to my hometown for an internship, I find that despite my delusional fantasies, Jordan’s feelings remain the same. I’m still buddy-buddy Paige. The only thing that’s changed is that my friend-zone membership has been upgraded to platinum level.
But just as I’m making Adele’s “Someone Like You” my personal anthem, my life gets a miraculous facelift—I get a chance at my dream job and a potential new boyfriend all in one week. Sounds like the perfect way to get over Jordan, right?
Wrong.
Jordan’s starting to act… well, strange. I don’t know if I’m reading into things or if Jordan’s getting friendlier. Either way, he’s not just giving me butterflies these days—he’s constructing an entire exhibit with every longing look and lingering touch.
Unfortunately, that’s when I know I have to move on. Because if history taught me anything, it’s that when things heat up between us, I’m bound to get burned.
