Prologue

    I was crashed out on the couch listening to my iPod when my mom came home from her date. My father had died 3 years ago in a car crash and my mom had finally gotten up the nerve to start dating again. She’d been dating a guy at her office for about seven or eight months now. His son, Kevin, went to school with me.
Kevin and I had been friends since before my father died. I guess we’d been friends since we were in the first grade. Like best friends. We could tell each other anything, seriously, anything.
“Hey, Sadie, can we talk?” mom asked.
“Sure…” I replied, pulling out my ear buds. “What’s up?”
“Well, I wanted to ask you something. About Paul,” my mom said cautiously. Paul Stephens was the guy she was dating.
“Okay, shoot,” I said.
“Well, he asked me to marry him,” my mom said slowly.
My heart froze over, “W-what?”
“I only said I would consider it. I need your blessing first,” she said kindly.
“But this would mean Kevin would be-“ I choked. “My brother!”
“Yes, of course. But are you okay with Paul being your father?” my mom pressed.
I nodded, unable to speak. Why was I nodding? I wasn’t okay with this! Kevin was my best friend, not my brother! It didn’t matter about Paul I truly liked him. I didn’t care…but Kevin couldn’t be my brother. Not the way I- I stopped my thought short. I couldn’t admit that to myself, I just couldn’t, not if he was going to be my brother.
I ran out of the living room and crashed on my bed. This wasn’t right…
