If it wasn't for one faulty clasp, Jack Barakat and Alex Gaskarth would have been nothing more than another one night stand to each other.
If Jack hadn't been rushing to college, they never would have met properly in the daylight.
If Alex hadn’t had to get to work early, they never would have fallen for one another.
If the pendant hadn’t caught the light, they never would have torn each other apart.
But on that day, late January, that seemingly insignificant piece of metal did break. Jack was late. Alex was forced to be early. The sun shone at the right angle.
And that made all the difference.
