And yet another day, it would send me into overtime.That was when it hit me like a bolt of lightning.Was I really dating one guy, or three?He might have a secret, but it was nothing compared to the one I was holding.And I wasn't willing to share it with anyone.If anyone found out the truth, not only would my secret fantasy be dead in the water, but my life at college would be too.
