How To Fall In Love
Chapter 1
Unsinkable ships, sink
Unbreakable walls, break
Sometimes the things you think will never happen,
Happen just like that
--Impossible--by Joe Nichols
A sleek silver sportscar cut through the blackness as it sped down the familiar country road. Rain was coming down in sheets. It was the most rain that the small town of Smallville had ever seen, but the downpour didn't phase the car's driver.
The driver liked the rain. The power it had to wash away the old, and make way for the new. It meant new beginnings, something he was always eager to have.
As the car rounded the last curve of its journey, the driver could see the familiar lights of home. What he couldn't see was the patch of black ice from the previous night's freeze.
The car hit the ice at over sixty miles per hour. Before the driver could register what had happened the car was spinning in dizzying circles.
As suddenly as it had started the car stopped. With a sickening sound of crunching metal the driver's side was wrapped around a tree.
The driver never knew what happened.
