There where 3 new neighbors and 1 me... And a friendship that came to be in the most oddest way possible. Joe, Jon, Colby and I became inseparable throughout grade school, high school and mostly college... Until... I entered the military during our 3rd year of college. A lot had changed about me that they didn't know and I didn't want them to know.... Well at least not yet. They, on the other hand, had become successful WWE wrestlers just like they had planned. I was their motivation to push harder even when they didn't think they could do it. 11 years later, at the hight of their careers, I decided to come back home due to something I wanted no part in and thought about wanting to reconnect with them but I didn't know if it would be a happy reunion. I fell in love 2 years ago and never looked back so I want them to come together and understand this love I've found. Colby was the cry baby that I created and the guys use to hate it. He was the youngest of us four. He was the fitness nut, as well as the one that made sure we all had a reason to hangout when it was curfew. He was the scape goat. Jon was the crazy one... My drinking buddy at best. He taught me whiskey was my best friend when he wasn't there in time. He still brings up the incident at his 18th birthday party and I laugh everytime. And then there's Joe... The calm one. True enough he had a mean strike but he would be the level headed one along with me. He made sure we all were there for one another. Well I head home today... Wish me luck!

When I was 14, my best friend, Declan, rushed into my life like a storm. He climbed through my window one night, carrying a duffel bag full of baseball equipment, but it wasn't for a game. It was for me. He'd seen the bruises, heard the shouting, and knew what my dad had been doing. Declan, smaller than me even at that age, fought my father to protect me, taking the blows that I couldn't fight off. That night, my dad moved us away, and I never saw Declan again. Now, 13 years later, I'm back in town-older, tougher, and a lot more guarded-but I have no idea where Declan ended up. Life pulled us in different directions, and mine was full of scars, seen and unseen. Then, one night at a red light, a guy starts harassing me through my open window. Before I can react, a motorcycle screeches to a stop beside me. The rider-tattooed, broad-shouldered, and completely lethal-reaches through the guy's window, slams his head into the steering wheel, and rides off like it was just another Thursday. I follow him. He ends up at a place called The Rusted Anchor, a rough bar on the edge of town, hidden behind rusted fences and rows of bikes. The crowd is loud and rough, but I've seen worse. Inside, it smells like whiskey, smoke, and danger. And behind the bar, pouring drinks with practiced ease, is the man I thought I lost all those years ago-Declan. He's no longer the quiet, skinny kid who risked everything to protect me. He's a man now-hardened, scarred, with eyes like storm clouds and a presence that silences a room. He doesn't recognize me at first. But when he does, I see it-that same fire, that same instinct to protect. Only now, it burns even hotter. Declan isn't just back in my life. He's ready to do whatever it takes to keep me safe. And this time, no one is going to take me away from him.
