❝This love is like fire and ice
This love is like rain and blue skies
This love is like sun on the rise
This love got me rolling the dice ❞

Everybody thought that Claire Biggs and Gerard Gibson were destined to end up together. Their mothers thought so, their friends thought so, even they thought so. That was until one fateful day in September at the beginning of 5th class, Johnny Kavanagh decided that Gerard Gibson and himself should become best friends. Four months later Gibsie was invited over to the Kavanagh house and first ever laid eyes on little Haven, and he's been smitten ever since. And boy since he saw the dark haired girl with freckles all around, he was a goner.

Gibsie thoroughly hated himself for feeling this way towards Haven, a girl so forbidden to him that not a single soul knew how he felt towards her. He knew it was wrong, so he turned to other girls just like Claire Biggs to try and remove Haven from his memory, all his efforts in vain because it seemed that the harder he tried to get her out, the harder her memory etched itself into his brain.

Haven knew it was normal to get small, little silly crushes on his brother's friends. She was okay with it, as long as they didn't last more than one or two days. What she wasn't okay with, is that since the moment she laid eyes on the floppy blonde mop of hair that belonged to a boy who could talk through elbows, the so-called silly little crush wouldn't go away. She never told anyone, and when her mother questioned her (because who knows a daughter better than her own mother) she would always deny deny deny. She locked up those feelings in a safe box deeply buried within her heart because she knew Gibsie would never go for her when he had better girls as options.

That is, until one fateful break right before the school year resumed, the invisible string that always seemed to pull Gibsie and Haven together decided to finally tie itself up into a circle, enclosing the two teenagers inside.
