Broken Love

Piper:

Most people don’t think about the day they’ll die. They coast through life, blissfully unaware of how their time is ticking away. I wasn’t like most people. I welcomed death, wanted her to take me away from the prison I called life, but she refused. I tried twice only to survive. And then, when I thought I had nothing left, it came.

A reason to live.

Rex was a small, unexpected ray of light in my world of darkness that blossomed into a beam of sunshine. I thought maybe this was why Death didn’t take me. Maybe she knew that if I held on a little longer, things would turn around. But the third time Death came to my door wasn’t by choice. Someone else brought her, and I fear this time, she might take me.

Rex:

Being the son of a country star sucks. My parents are never around, I move every year or so, and I have no real friends. Everyone around me has an agenda. Everyone except Piper Lovelace. I can’t get that girl to notice me. Trust me, I’ve tried.

Thankfully, fate stepped in and gave me the break I needed. I’ve got her attention; now I need her to give me a chance.
