What if Jesse wasn't visiting a museum when Leslie made her fateful crossing into Terabithia?

Jess Aaron's has been away at college. He can't shake the loss of his once best friend Leslie Burke. He arrives at his home where Leslie and him were once neighbors. He decides to go back to the place they used to play, only to discover Leslie has been alive all this time.

A sequel to "The Bridge to College," it starts where it leaves off. Jess and Leslie are now adults and set out in the world. While The Bridge to College was more Jess focused, here they share the spotlight. Leslie is a renown actress and writer while Jess is a semi famous artist and mathmitician who works as an every man. They go on adventures across the world and face adventures, tragedy, and the stress adult life brings. And Leslie wants a baby. While adult implications are mentioned, this will stay PG-13 as I do not want to corrupt Bridge to Terabithia

Just another typical day in Lark Creek, expecting nothing but the usual boring, backwash and sometimes even abusive everyday struggles. But when Jess and I are given the opportunity to spend a month back in Arlington with my family, what kind of new experiences will arise?

Looking at him from across the cafeteria my heart just stops. He bites his lower lip slightly as he reads the following words off of his new book, adjusting his hair from time to time. How can someone you've spent all of high school trying to forget still be the one to hold your heart?.. Stop staring! I look away and my eyes focus on something else... He's still the one I love. After all this time. I can't change that.. But he hates you. I wince at the thoughts coursing through me. You don't know that for sure.. Oh who am I kidding? Of course he hates me. If I was him I'd hate me too. A frown makes its way onto my face. Maybe just one more peek.. I glance back at him only to see his blue eyes no longer on the pages of his book but on me. We lock eyes and everything else disappears for a moment. My brown ones widen in shock. Shit! I try to look away but my eyes stay focused on him, and only him. ..Then something amazing happens.. He smiles. *currently editing some chapters* (This is sort of like the prologue. It is not in the book though. I wrote this so that you all can read it and see what's in store for this book. And I suck at descriptions so this is all I could think of. Also I curse a lot so yeah) (#14 in teen fiction)
