A girl goes to an underground boxing arena with her friend, even though she hates boxing because it reminds her of her ex-boyfriend, Matt Sturniolo. Four years earlier, when they were 16, they broke up because she couldn’t handle watching him get hurt while chasing his dream of becoming a fighter. She loved him, but the violence and fear were too painful for her. Now at 20, she unexpectedly sees Matt fighting in the arena for the first time since their breakup. He’s changed — older, stronger, tattooed, and hardened by the underground fighting world — but still has the same passion in his eyes. Then she notices something shocking: her name is tattooed across his back, proving he never truly let her go. When Matt finally looks up and sees her in the crowd, his cold fighter expression disappears and turns soft and emotional, like he’s still deeply in love with her after all those years.
