Trust was a foreign concept to Alexis. Pushing emotions aside is near impossible for someone who bottles them to the brink. The way things used to be were whispers of the past, and she is just trying to hold the left over pieces together. But when Ryan quite literally come stumbling into her life, he shows her that misery sure does love company, pushing to break down the sky high walls she's built around her heart. But sometimes when walls come crashing down, you get buried in the rubble.
