Leaving Him in the Rearview

Summary

On the day we graduated, my boyfriend was finally supposed to fulfill his promise of taking me on a road trip to the coast.

But when the morning arrived, he gave the passenger seat to my best friend, Ashley.

He said, "Ashley’s had a brutal time pulling herself out of the shadow of her breakup. Let’s not rub our relationship in her face."

I looked down at the motion sickness pills in my palm, suddenly at a loss for words. I had always gotten terribly sick sitting in the back of a car, and Colby knew that. He had always known.
