Instead of You

Two brothers.Cory was my best friend, the boy who I'd resolved to spend my entire life with. I'd grown to love him, gotten used to the idea of our life together, even if it wasn't the all-encompassing, soul-crushing, heart-shattering romance it appeared to be.Hayes was the boy who seemed entirely out of reach. Untouchable. He stole my first kiss, a secret I'd hidden away in the recesses of my heart, protecting the memory and hoping it would be enough to last me a lifetime. When he became my history teacher, it was impossible to hide from him any longer.There was no way to anticipate just how important both Wallace brothers would become to me, how deeply they would change my life, or how the loss of one would propel me into the arms of the other.
