Wanna know what happens when two doctors meet and get married? What about when they get married to each other, and their jobs, then decide to have a kid? Me. I’m what happens. A nurse by the age of twenty-four working at my dream hospital, with the best friends I could ask for. But, at the end of the day, I still walk into an empty apartment. It’s what I grew up with, so I’ve learned how to live independently, almost to the point where I struggle letting people get too close. So, I just throw myself into my job in an attempt to fill the void of loneliness. But then I met Cade, my big, grumpy friend who’s slowly taken down my wall brick by brick, sneaking his way into the void.
Cade
Being arguably the best goalie in the NHL on a team full of some of my best friends should make me feel like I’m on top of the world, but it doesn’t. It’s been like this since I was seventeen, I figured out then that I was better off alone. Well, more so that everyone else around me was better off without me, so I pushed everyone away, keeping even my best friends at arms-length. My family has spent years trying to pull me back in, but it wasn’t until I met Gwen that I actually wanted to listen. But I’ve been known to break promises, and the one thing I’ve learned is that promises can change your life.
Especially pinky promises.”
