I was twenty-two and had just landed my first job out of college at a very successful software company. Everything was working out perfectly, and I couldn't have been happier. I had my own apartment.

He said it would make a difference in my career and would put me up for a raise and possible promotion. When Jared walked up and was introduced to us, I thought I was going to lose it. It had been four years since I'd seen him. He left without a word and was all I had thought about since. He stood in front of me looking so different. I couldn't believe it was him. He was the sexiest man I had ever seen, and he had no idea who I was. When I was picked to be the one point of communication between him and the team, I wasn't sure how I was going to do it. How was I going to work with him without yelling or crying, I wondered? How could he not remember me? I finally gave in and did a little research so I knew exactly what I was dealing with. What I found took my breath away. Was he ever the man I thought he was? It was time. I needed to move on with my life. That was when I decided to get lost in a stranger for one night. I needed him to make me forget. I wanted to forget everything. Just when I was finally ready to give up, something happened and I was right back where I started. less

I read Jared's text just before dropping the phone to the ground and watching it shatter around me. It was the same way I felt about my life. Jared: Happy Birthday How did he know? Did he remember me, or did someone from my company tell him? Sleeping in the room next to me was the stranger I had taken home the night before. He was supposed to make me forget, but it hadn't worked. The entire time we were together, all I could think about was Jared... moreI read Jared's text just before dropping the phone to the ground and watching it shatter around me. It was the same way I felt about my life. Jared: Happy Birthday How did he know? Did he remember me, or did someone from my company tell him? Sleeping in the room next to me was the stranger I had taken home the night before. He was supposed to make me forget, but it hadn't worked. The entire time we were together, all I could think about was Jared. When I showed up for work the next day, I was surprised to find someone in my office. Strange things happened that day. There was a bank error in my favor. I knew it was a mistake. When I called to tell them, they blew me off. I was going home, and nobody was going to ruin it. In my apartment, alone, was where I needed to be. At least that's what I thought. I should have known better. I received another text from Jared telling me his driver was on the way to pick me up. What happened after that rocked my world. Just when I thought it couldn't get more complicated, I was smacked in the face with reality.

I had to get away from him as fast as I could, so I left in the middle of the night. I couldn't believe he knew who I was. He had known the whole time. There was so much going on, and I didn't know how to deal with it all. One secret after the next was coming to the surface, and all of my worlds were colliding at once... moreI had to get away from him as fast as I could, so I left in the middle of the night.
