When he walked away afterward, I pretended it hurt less than it did. Its a lesson thats stuck with methe people I want never choose me back. Oakley Everything about what I shared with Desmond Jackson was perfect. Then, on the last morning of our trip, my ex-girlfriend-slash-best friend dropped a bomb: Im pregnant. For the sake of the baby, we decided to make it work. Eleven years later, Serena and I are still best friends, but our relationship is over, though we havent told anyone. Between her moms recent diagnosis and our daughter, we arent ready for more complications. Enter Des, recently traded to L.A.s second pro football teammy team being the first.
