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*

An Awkward Standoff

Ryan's brow furrowed as he turned to Keeley. "Why did you have to be the one to drive him home?"

She shrugged and swallowed her bite of cake before answering. "No one else was going to do it."

"Why couldn't he?" he persisted, nodding toward Aiden.

"I was closer. We had just finished walking down the aisle when it happened."

Aaron was getting annoyed that this guy was interrogating her like a jealous boyfriend. They weren't dating. What right did he have to question her?

Valentina seemed to realize she had brought up a bad subject and hastily tried to change it. "Wow, this cake is delicious!"

"I know, right? Probably the best cake I've ever tasted. I wanted some for my birthday but forgot because of finals," Keeley lamented. 

"There's always next year!" she said brightly, grateful that her friend was playing along.
