HE WAS BORN TWO DAYS BEFORE THE SON OF THEIR BEST FRIENDS DARYN AND MARTY BROOKS, A BOY BY THE NAME OF RIELLY. BRAYDEN AND RIELLY WOULD GROW UP AS BROTHERS, ALWAYS IN THE SAME CLASSES, ALWAYS WITH THE SAME FRIENDS. BUT THEIR BIGGEST CONFLICT WOULD BE OVER THE LOVE OF ONE GIRL: HAYDEN MARKS. HAYDEN WAS THE DAUGHTER OF THE FAMOUS HISTORIAN TANNER MARKS AND A WOMAN WHO HAD LEFT TANNER IN HIS YOUTH, LEAVING HAYDEN IN A BASKET ON HIS FRONT PORCH WITH A NOTE THAT SIMPLY READ: "I'M SORRY". BRAYDEN AND HAYDEN, IRONIC AS THEIR RHYMING NAMES WERE, DATED FROM THE TIME THEY WERE IN MIDDLE SCHOOL THROUGHOUT HIGH SCHOOL. BRAYDEN ALWAYS SUSPECTED HIS BEST FRIEND HAD A CRUSH ON HIS GIRLFRIEND, AND THEY WOULD OFTEN FIGHT OVER IT EVEN THOUGH NEITHER OF THEM ADMITTED THAT WHAT WHY THEY FOUGHT. THEIR SENIOR YEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL WAS WHEN IT ALL BEGAN TO GO AWRY. BRAYDEN FELT HAYDEN GROWING AWAY FROM HIM ALTHOUGH SHE DENIED EVERY MINUTE OF IT, AND HE KNEW SHE WAS FALLING IN LOVE WITH RIELLY. THEY WOULD BE GOING TO DIFFERENT COLLEGES IN THE FALL, AND BRAYDEN'S ANGER OVER LOSING HAYDEN SO GRADUALLY, SO SURELY, TO HIS BEST FRIEND GOT THE BEST OF HIM. OUT RIDING AROUND THE BOARDING SCHOOL THEIR PARENTS OWNED AND OPERATED, BRAYDEN GOT OUT OF CONTROL AND LOST CONTROL OF HIS STALLION. NOW, BRAYDEN WAS AN EXPERT RIDER - HAVING RIDDEN SINCE THE TIME HE WAS A CHILD - AND LOSING CONTROL OF A HORSE WAS SO FOREIGN TO HIM HE DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO REACT. THE STALLION THREW HIM, AND HE FLEW THROUGH THE AIR, GETTING A MASSIVE CONCUSSION WHEN HE HIT THE GROUND. |
