Berkley and Dean had been best friends since they were in diapers. They were so close they could finish each other's sentences and had never spent more than a week apart in their entire lives. They grew up together because their Dads were best friends and co-owners of a fishing boat company they had started up together after college. Dean had always looked out for Berkley and tried to protect her from getting hurt by guys that had bad intentions, and she trusted him more than anyone else in the world. That's why, when they went off to college together and she decided she wanted to experience sex for the first time, she couldn't imagine doing it with anyone else but him. She wanted her first time to be with someone special, someone that meant a lot to her that she could trust. Dean refused at first because he was afraid it would mess up their friendship, but he eventually caved when he found out that refusing meant she was going to do it with a guy that he hated instead. He was so protective of her that he finally gave in. The deal was, it was just going to be one time and they'd go back to being just friends after, like it never happened. The problem was, they didn't think through all the consequences that came along with having sex with your best friend. **** Warning!
