But you sent me away (ONC)

[Longlist of the ONC 2021] After a whirlwind romance with Jaxson Bowers at a music festival in Germany, Tess returns home with a precious gift but no Jaxson. When she goes looking for him, she finds out that he vanished soon after his return from Germany. Rumor has it that the crime syndicate that his family is involved in had something to do with his disappearance. Tess resigns herself to the fact that she will never have the boy she fell for or any other lover for that matter until a chance encounter changes everything.

Prompt 72: You met the love of your life at a music festival, but after that weekend you never saw them again. Twenty years later, that changes.
