Hanging By A Moment

Football is everything, but love is the only game that matters.

Leo Taylor, the most promising--and maybe the hottest--tight-end in college football today, is my boyfriend.

Sounds perfect, doesn't? Dating a football star at one of the nation's top colleges is living the dream. But our long-distance relationship isn't easy, and I find myself wondering if the timing is ever going to be right for Leo and me. It's not always easy to play second-fiddle to football.

One thing I do know is that my friend Nate puts me first all the time. There's no doubt in my mind that he loves me. I just can't feel the same way.

These four years were supposed to be the most exciting time of my life. Instead, they turn into a rollercoaster of uncertainty, complete with breathtaking highs and lows that threaten to break my heart.

Faced with a decision that means either denying one friend his last wish or losing the only man I'll ever love, I realize that in this game, for me, winning isn't an option.
