When Jax returned home to his small town of Hardin, Kentucky- the last thing he thought he'd find was the life he left behind, and the desire to return. Jax- I'm going home for the holidays for the first time in three years. It's also been three years since I've gone home. I blame work and the life I worked hard for in Los Angeles. It's a major league team, and if I hadn't worked so hard, I wouldn't have accomplished this. But I had to come back. My high school coach is retiring and he asked me to be his keynote speaker. Home... It comes with a lot of baggage. Why did I have to bump into Kenny? He's the largest piece of baggage I left behind. But he smiled at me, and all I could think of were the good times we had. Not the heartbreak he caused... I need to remember that he was never good for me. He was selfish and full of himself, and he had no right to look so hot. Kenny- The holidays always bring about a bunch of crap that I really don't want to deal with. My parents have both died and celebrating Christmas alone is... Well, it's not fun. It's depressing and sad. But maybe this holiday will be different? I'm tired of being alone, in my own forced exile. Maybe it's time to embrace the future? Besides, Jax is back in town. His mother told me he was coming in. But am I ready to see him again after all the hurt I know I caused him? I know what my heart says. It's only ever been Jax for me, even if he does deserve better.
