Two companions from childhood. Two fractured hearts. One spontaneous road trip to escape from it all. That’s the sole intention behind this venture. After all, I’ve been confined to the realm of friendship for a considerable span now.
Nevertheless, Jasper Gervais, the hockey heartthrob, is no longer regarding me in the light of a mere friend. His touches also transcend the boundaries of friendship.
To his admirers, he’s the attractive, skilled athlete on television screens. However, in my eyes, he remains the forlorn boy with sorrowful eyes and a heart of pure gold.
He’s the man I’ve cherished privately for years.
Thus, when my life crumbles on what was supposed to be my wedding day, it feels inevitable that he’s the one who swoops in to rescue me. And when his own world shatters around him, I’m right there to reciprocate the favor.
Yet, as we spend more time in solitude, Jasper begins to morph into something beyond a friend. He starts to embody everything I’ve yearned for but thought was unattainable.
Our emotions, however, are far from straightforward. They weave and twist around the ache of his past and the reality of my present.
Jasper Gervais acts as if he desires me.
But given his history of pushing me away for years, he must now substantiate his intentions.
