Always Too Late — Micalea Smeltzer

This is a prequel to Mathais and Remy's story in Never Too Late but MUST be read after Never Too Late to avoid spoilers. Seriously. I mean it. Read it after. Please note this is a SHORT STORY of only 5,600 words and not a novella or full length novel.

Mathias Wade may be the lead singer of Willow Creek, but he didn't start out that way.
Once upon a time, he was simply a boy that loved a girl, but their story ended in tragedy.
This is the beginning.
