Aly was back in my life and I was already hooked on her again. I needed to be near her. I wanted to find out everything she did, everything she’d seen – everything I’d missed about her since the day she was gone. After last night, I could barely go two seconds without thinking about her. And since losing her the first time was hard enough, there was no way in hell I was letting it happen again.””
