Ex-lovers, A thousand regrets, and Sex

Paisley was the one who ended her relationship with Aspen, reasoning that she couldn’t see a future in that relationship. And yet, she’s the one who couldn’t move on. No matter how Paisley tried to love someone else, at the end of the day, before she closed her eyes to sleep, the gray eyes of Aspen were still the last thing that she was thinking of. She had already lost count of the times she regretted that she broke up with Aspen, but she had never done anything to make Aspen back. The last time they saw each other was the day they broke up. Not because Aspen didn’t try to win Paisley back, but because Paisley White was the one who did everything to avoid Aspen.

Seven years later, after their breakup, Paisley coincidentally meets Aspen in a bar where Paisley’s friend chose to celebrate her birthday. It was supposed to be just a fun night until Paisley pulled Aspen for a kiss as they lay on the bed. It was supposed to be harmless. It was supposed to mean nothing. But because she still had feelings for Aspen, it didn’t become "just nothing", but became everything for her as she fell even deeper into Aspen Harrison. But this time, she was alone. She was falling alone because, unlike Paisley, Aspen managed to move forward and now is in a relationship with someone else.
