People who RSVP to fancy potentially life-changing events saying they will have a plus one, need to show up with their said plus one, right? It's a good thing Indigo's best friend has damn near a basketball team of brothers. Kolby Bradford does not like art showcases. But, he likes getting drunk, and getting home alive afterwards, so he agrees to be Indigo's date for the night, in return for a designated driver. He never planned on hooking up with her, though.

He never knew life could be this way, but truly if he did, he wouldn't have cared. He cared about nothing, not even himself until her. Before her, he was empty/ Before her he knew nothing of joy or completion, and this is his journey to his life After her.
