When I met Charly, she was a bomb. Our years together in law school were intense and profound as two loner souls nosediving into a troublesome romance. We did things together I wouldn't dare tell anyone, our physical attraction was unstoppable from the start. But Charly instigated the darkest side of me until our demons were unleashed. It was the time of my life, and nothing has come close since. Now a decade later, I need to work through what happened, just as Charly decides to reappear, derailing my life once again. The exact moment I began to give my relationship with Emily a real try, and after years of knowing nothing about Charly but deceitful lies, she just shows up, only this time her lies have gone too far: what she has hidden from me will disrupt everything. Charly was the rich and sexy, freaky girl who could have anything she desired and she craved me, just a poor boy lucky enough to have been granted an athlete's scholarship. Our love was real, and so was our pain, we were both trying to evade ourselves. These are the recollections of how we became addicted to each other and other agents that nearly destroyed us. In our sexual awakening, we went to extremes most people would call insanity and yet in that chaos, I loved her more than anything and anyone and I know she loved me the same. She helped me believe in myself, something no one ever did before and my success today is all thanks to her, I know. But now that she comes clean about everything, will I be able to live with it? Will I be able to let go of this anger I carry with me since birth? But more importantly, has she come to stay?
