Wanting Us

He was my high school crush, my high school sweetheart, and my high school heartbreak. The day he broke my heart was the last day I ever spoke to him. At least until six years later when he showed up with my brother to help me out of a bad situation.
Now that he’s back in my life the connection we had so long ago is still there like he didn’t break my heart in two. Can I trust that connection and open myself up in hopes he won’t hurt me again? Will I allow myself to accept the want I have for him and us? Will he be my forever like I thought he was so long ago?
