Jingle Bear by TK Lawyer

Is the woman to jingle Gabe’s interest his best friend?
Of all the people in Gabe’s life, Arabelle meant the most.
Chasing her across the playground, he used to call her Belly, and pull her pigtails.
They became best friends, but that was long ago.
He holds a secret not even she knows.
Sweet, caring, and different, Gabe did things, said things that left Arabelle confused and crossed the unspoken line beyond friendship.
Yet, Arabelle crossed that line, long ago, getting her heart stomped.
She wasn’t going through that again.
Still, there is something about Gabe she cannot resist.
Will his secret undo their special friendship, or will she realize Gabe is that one man worth fighting for?
