I Lose You in the End

Ah, yes. Love. The one thing any of us would probably quite literally die for.

Except for Brayden Chastain. If there was anything Brayden wanted, it was to avoid love at all costs. Girls were a thing he could casually use and then avoid. Commitment sucks. Too much pressure. Being responsible for another persons feelings sucks. Having to share things about yourself sucks. Dating is awkward. Brayden doesn't want to stare at you while you talk about your sisters cat and what you're watching on Netflix. He wants to see you naked. In fact, that's all he's been thinking about since you sat down. And he'll get what he wants. Popular boys like him always do. Right?

W r o n g.

Enter Katie Cooper. An awkward, what am I doing here, I want to take a nap kind of girl. Sure, she was best friends with the most popular boy in school, Brayden Chastain, but that didn't make her any more visible. If anything, they were too busy looking at him to even notice her. Her boyfriend cheated on her. Her dad left her mom. Love, to Katie Cooper, was just a word people used until they got tired of using it. She would always think this way. Little did she know that one night alone with someone she'd never expect would change the way she feels about love forever.

It would change the way Brayden felt about love forever.
