Against my better judgment I got up from my seat and moved closer to the middle of the pool, just in time to see Taylor bracing himself against the fence. He seemed to steel himself before breaking into a sprint, pelting across the decking toward the pool’s deep end. Right before he would have tripped on the edge of the pool he jumped into the air, tucked his knees against his chest and cannonballed into the water. I managed to close my eyes barely half a second before the splash produced by one hundred and eighty-eight centimetres of Jordan Taylor Hanson hit me, soaking me from head to foot.

The worst pain he had ever felt erupted from his left shoulder as the joint dislocated, whiting his vision out completely, and he let out a scream so loud that it echoed through the corridor. Before he realised what he was doing, he slammed his left side against the wall and popped his shoulder back into its socket. “Ow, ow, ow,” he moaned as he slid down the wall, clutching his shoulder with his right hand. “Motherfucker that hurts…”

Almost before I could blink, Taleah had pulled me up onto my feet and drawn me into a hug. I buried my face in her shoulder and tried my hardest not to start crying. I could feel myself shaking from the effort of holding the tears back. “He’s going to be okay,” she said as she held me, one of her hands stroking my hair. “I promise Rue, he’s going to be okay.”

I don’t expect to be forgiven. I don’t expect to be welcomed back. And I definitely don’t expect anyone to forget what I did a decade and a half ago – that I abandoned my family, my bandmates and my career. And nor do I want them to. I just want them to know how sorry I am, and that if I could fix everything I would do it in a heartbeat.
I just hope that it’s not too late.
