the one that got away

synopsis; they say you can't lose what you never had, but Jaafar has been losing you for years. To everyone else, he's the loyal partner; to you, he's the man who shares your bed and your history, then leaves to go home to someone else. You've lived in the shadow of being his second choice for so long that the "best friend" title feels like a cruel joke. But there's a reason he won't let you go, and as you face each other again, the suppressed desire from that first summer turns into a fire that's going to burn down everything he's built.
