Something Like Love

<p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>I want to.</span></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>I can't.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>I've been friends with Cooper Rice from the moment we met. He was just as famous a decade ago on our college campus as he is now being the star quarterback for the Chicago Grizzlies.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>But he's not only talented on the field he's also the gorgeous football star women fawn over posing in underwear and razor ads.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>Here's a secret those women don't know-Cooper Rice isn't a playboy. He's the kind of man who wants to settle down with a family. He's content ordering pizza and massaging my feet after my long shift as an emergency room doctor. He listens to me as if he's as invested as I am in my patients. He has never let me down.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>This is exactly why I refuse to live without Cooper in my life. Eight years ago I made him promise me that we'd never cross that line. And just like I knew Cooper would he's held to that promise.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>Despite our best efforts our relationship is evolving shifting into new territory and I find myself unsure if I want Cooper to keep that promise. Ignoring the obvious could tear us apart but so could giving in meaning there's a chance I'll lose Cooper forever no matter what decision I make.</span></p>
