New Leaf

*I thought he was out of my life for good. *

I always hoped I'd run into Jackson again. I didn't think it was ever going to happen, but I always hoped. So the day I found his lost kitten felt like fate. I didn't even know he was in town, and now I was going to be seeing him again so that I could return his adorable cat.

But it's been years since we last spoke and things didn't exactly end well. I used to be in love with him, and I still have so many feelings, but can I forgive him? He's been wonderful to me in the past but he also hurt me deeply. I can't deny, though, that the bond between us is still strong. At least, it is for me. I can't be sure how he feels. Especially considering how he left...

I was such a fool to ever let him go.

I haven't been the best person, I will fully admit to that. I've made a lot of mistakes in my life, but leaving Grant behind was by far the biggest. He was my best friend, I've never been closer to anyone else.

And that's the scary part for me. My biggest fear about returning to my hometown to help out my family was that I'd run into him again. I don't want to get close to him again because it might mean losing him. And I already felt crushed losing him the first time

Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice

*I absolutely love everything about Halloween! *

This is my favorite time of the year. My family, who I'm very close to, own a pumpkin patch and corn maze. Every year, I help my Grandma run it and have a blast doing so. Even on the slow days, I take in the scenery and enjoy the fact that it's finally autumn.

Things get even better when I run into a cute guy at the patch. I think about doing a little flirting until I realize he has a kid with him. Kids are cool and all but I could never date a father. I don't want kids of my own so that's a little too complicated for me.

He is intriguing, though...

Life has never been harder for me.

I'm trying to survive a horrible family tragedy. Usually, I like this time of year. I own a costume shop and Halloween always brings in a lot of business. But right now, I'm living through my own personal hell.

Which means I don't have time for dating. As much as I'd like to, I know nobody is going to want to explore a relationship with me when I've got all this baggage. I have to accept that I'll be doing this on my own for a while.

But, I'm not going to lie, that cute guy at the corn maze is very tempting.

Cold Turkey

*I've loved him since we were kids. *

All I wanted was to come home and have an enjoyable Thanksgiving with my parents. But I should have known that wasn't going to happen. We've always had a rocky relationship, we're not close by any means.

I was much closer to my best friend's family. Ethan lived across the street from me growing up and we were always incredibly close. His house was a second home to me. So when he saw me outside of my parent's house, he offered to let me spend Thanksgiving with them.

Which would be great, if I wasn't trying to hide the fact that I'm still madly in love with him.

I never thought I'd see him again.

I was elated when I saw Daniel sitting outside of his parent's old house.
