I thought I heard Damon sigh in relief. "Good. Alright. Well, I'm here for you, Dest. I'll always be here for you. I'm always a text away, and sometimes even a call away. You've always been there for me, so I'm going to be there for you. Whatever happens, I'm on your side."
I smiled at that and rubbed his shoulder "Thank you, it means so much. I don't know what I'd do without you."
He laughed "Bitch pleeease, you'd be lost without me."
I rolled my eyes and punched his shoulder "Shut up, you dork."
We both laughed and just continued to have some conversation all the way to my house. He really is my best friend. After all we've been through, all we're going through, we're still the best of friends. And that's how it's going to stay. God, I am so lucky to have a best friend like him.
When Chef Margot loses her beloved restaurant to her cheating ex-fiance, her best friend, single dad Nathan, steps in with an unexpected offer to help her start over. As they collaborate, sparks fly-but can they overcome their complicated pasts for a chance at real love?
