He Was Always Mine

In a small suburban town, two families were bound by the deep friendship of Mother's. Amidst this backdrop, a tender romance blossomed between Derek and Summer, two teenagers whose lives had been intertwined since birth.

Derek, the epitome of high school royalty, was a football star whose features and magnetic charm drew admiring glances from every corner of the hallway. Yet, beneath his confident exterior lay a heart that yearned for something more profound than the shallow affections of cheerleaders. From the moment he first laid eyes on Summer, he was captivated by her radiant beauty and gentle spirit, a sunshine that illuminated even the darkest corners of his world.

Summer, on the other hand, harbored a secret that threatened to eliminate the light within her. Trapped in a lonely household made by her father's alcoholism and her mother's crippling depression, she found solace in the fleeting moments she shared with Derek, her lifelong friend and the object of her hidden affections. As she watched him from afar, enveloped in the adoration of his peers, she resigned herself to the belief that her dreams of being with him would forever remain unfulfilled.

In a twist of fate, their worlds collided at a pivotal moment, when Summer's life hung in the balance, teetering precariously on the edge of a precipice from which there seemed no return. It was in this darkest hour that Derek's love for her finally found its voice, a declaration that shattered the barriers between them and ignited a passion that had been simmering for years.

But just as their love story was beginning, tragedy struck for both of them.
