If you can hold on to it, do.
For the others after will be different.
Watered down versions tainted with your insecurities, their fears, each other’s pride.
Promises not to make the same mistakes twice, entering as a slightly altered version of yourself.
Because that first love, you dive deep with no restrictions.
You are you and they are them, fully.
And you hit bumps, and turbulence, and at times think you’ll crash headfirst until that love saves you…like a parachute.
That first love. That true love.

Dalvin and Tahli fell in love as we often do, when looking for everything but.
Two seeds in fresh soil, one is hyper focused on a future while the other is on a fresh start of figuring it all out.
Both journeys best taken alone are defied by the two’s will to do it together.
Here’s the start, some of the middle, and possibly the end to their story.
Book One is the first of a three-book series.","format",{"_19":24,"_86":106,"_107":108,"_109":48},"publisher","page_count",403,"duration","published_date","pub_date","December 5","isbn","asin","B0CPNYTGPF","hex_code","#f57e42","language","English","purchase_links",[],"playlist_links",[],"cover","https://cdn.blackauthored.com/books/131i/7c694a15-329d-49da-9e82-f48593a923e2.jpg","thumb","https://img.blackauthored.com/?preset=poster_thumb&image=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.blackauthored.com%2Fbooks%2F131i%2F7c694a15-329d-49da-9e82-f48593a923e2.jpg","rating_distribution",{"_97":98,"_99":100},"tags",[85],{"_19":26,"_86":87,"_88":89,"_55":-5,"_53":90,"_91":92,"_93":48,"_94":48,"_95":96},"name","Romance","category","genre","romance","url","/genres/romance","selectable","sensitive","position",0,"ratings",{},"recommend",{"_101":102,"_103":96,"_104":105},"yes",18,"no","maybe",2,"Kindle","type","digital","audio","Parachutes","31020744-3792-49fc-802b-6ed8aa8a9575","order",{"_19":114,"_86":115,"_53":116,"_117":118,"_119":120,"_121":122,"_123":124,"_125":126},"e2b88e31-18b1-442f-876f-a3072495e629","Takerra Allen","20-takerra-allen","biography","
