"At some point or another we are all going to fall. Whether that is metaphorically falling or physically, it is bound to happen more than once in our life time. We're all going to fall in love someday, we're all going to fall off of a bike someday. We can trip and fall or we could fall out of love. At some point or another, we are all going to fall. That I can promise you."

Madison Marie Knight--Rose, better yet--was once happily married to Kendall Knight. Their love wasn't exactly perfect but it was close enough. They understood each other perfectly. They could tell what the other was thinking just by a single glance. They had date nights every Friday and spent the Saturdays with their two children--Melody and Junior.

Like any other relationship, however, they had their ups and downs and one argument after a tragic accident is all it takes for the line to be crossed. Having enough of it, celebrity Madison leaves and files for divorce, taking their youngest with her. It isn't pretty but what divorce is? Depression gets to the both of them, Madison and Kendall, until a close friend takes her out at night.

"I don't know if I had drank one drink too many or if the atmosphere of the club was drawing me in. The divorce was not too long ago and so I could not allow myself to fall for somebody else. Love does not exist, I've known that all along but didn't listen to it the first time. Well, now I am stomping my foot down and saying no more! I shouldn't have even left the house tonight. There is no point in me being here if I'm not going to make an attempt to move on. But now he was walking in my direction and my heart was pounding hard in my chest. What was this? I can't possibly be feeling anything! But deep down inside, I knew I was, and didn't have a single clue as to why."
