All My Heart

Anger, Resentment, Jealousy, Rage, Violence, Hate and Fear. For eighteen years, this is all I?ve known. When everything seemed to crash and burn around me, I could always count on those seven things to get me through. At least that?s how it was until Isabelle. With one brief look across a crowded parking lot, she altered my entire existence. Erasing all of the things I thought I could count on and replacing them with ones of her own. Things that even now, a year later, I still don?t think I deserve. Forgiveness, Understanding, Acceptance, Friendship, Redemption, Hope and Love. So what do you do when you?ve been given all of these things by the most beautiful person on the planet with nothing expected in return? Well when you?re me, you find a way to screw it up. She thinks I?m the strong one. That I?m not afraid of anything. She?s wrong. I?m afraid of a lot of things, but the absolute worst is losing her. Losing yet another person I love and being powerless to stop it. I can?t lose Belle. I just can?t. Even if losing her is exactly what I deserve. You thought our story was complete, but what you?re about to find out, is no story ever really ends. It just finds new ways to begin again.
