Temporary Bliss

Chapter 1

We had been around the same social circles all our I never thought that much about her. In a real romantic she was just my brother's best friend.

Why did this night. This moment be changing all of that.?

She was out of reach and off limits. It was probably for the best anyway.

I wasn't boyfriend material. I realized that a long time ago.

Nathan thought to himself. As his eyes scanned the crowd.

...

I was Lucas's designated driver for the night. I barely knew these people.

Lucas gets on the basketball team in high school and suddenly joins this world I'm not a part of.

I had hoped after his HCM diagnosis. Having to quit.

Brooke and Peyton and the rest of them would go away.

So it could go back to just me and Luke.

But I don't think that was happening at this point.

We were 23. High school long over and they were still around.
