Run, Girl (If You Can)

Keeley, a simple plain Jane, hits the jackpot. [No, she did not win the lottery!] At least that's what she thinks when she marries the most eligible bachelor in New York City: Aaron, a wealthy cold-hearted heartthrob and Tycoon. She wants to show the world that she deserves her position and bends over backward to fit into his world. One beautiful day, Aaron hands her a document asking her to sign. A divorce paper... "She's pregnant, and I need to take responsibility." That is the last thing that keeps on playing in her mind before she takes her last breath. Keeley dies, a 'hit and run'. [End of story. Not!] For some unexplainable reason, she wakes up as her younger self. A young high school girl, around the time when she first meets her cheating husband. Remembering her life with Aaron before she died, she makes a promise to herself that she will do everything in her power to avoid him at all costs. Will she be able to keep her promise when Aaron has his own plans as well, specifically for her? Or will she repeat history and fall for him once more... Why not journey with me and find out the truth behind their story. *Cover art by polkadottedscrunchie*

A Toast

To break the tension she felt permeating the room, Keeley turned to her dad. "Can you take a picture of me next to the tree?"

"Sure. Do you want to break out the spare tree topper and wear it as a hat?"

"Ooh, that would be great! Be right back!" Keeley zipped off to find it and fled the room. It was in a box with extra Christmas stuff in Kaleb's old room and wasn't terribly hard to find.

Standing next to the tree, she posed before placing it on her head and standing very still so it wouldn't fall off. Her dad snapped the picture and proclaimed that she made a fine Christmas tree before handing her phone back to her.

She took the star off her head. "We should probably get changed into our pajamas now. Aaron, you can just wait out here."

Keeley headed to her room and pulled on the reindeer onesie. When she came out, her dad was wearing his but Aaron was nowhere to be seen. Was he in the bathroom?
