Seven years ago, Y/N and Adrian Vale were inseparable. They made matching friendship bracelets, promised they’d always have each other, and believed nothing could ever change that. Then Adrian’s mother died, and he was suddenly moved across the country. Now seventeen, Y/N has moved on. High school, family, friends—and Caleb Bennett, the popular, bubbly football player who loves Y/N loudly and without hesitation. Life is comfortable. Predictable. Until Adrian comes back. The sweet boy Y/N remembers is now the mysterious new transfer everyone is talking about: intimidating, guarded, angry, and seemingly uninterested in anyone around him. Anyone except Y/N. Adrian never forgot their promise. He never threw away the bracelet. And he certainly didn’t come all this way to watch someone else hold Y/N’s hand. Caught between the boy who stayed and the boy who came back, Y/N is about to discover that some childhood promises are much harder to leave behind than they thought.
