"You're drunk. You're always drunk. You can't keep coming here." "I didn't know where else to go."

It's been seven years since Emilia Davenport's best friend left Sheffield to start a music career, and she's spent every second of that time trying to forget that he ever existed. It's been seven years since Alex Tuner took off from his home town to try and make it in the music industry, but now that he has, he wants nothing more than to go back home. And when their two lives meet again, they realize that maybe growing up wasn't as great as they'd always dreamed, and maybe everything they ever needed had always been right there in front of them...

She hates him. He hates her. But after a one night stand with 'no strings attached' do their feelings for one another begin to get complicated? Can Alex win her over with his 'irresistible' charms? or will she stand her ground and push him away? ~SENSITIVE AND SEXUAL CONTENT~ I started writing this book a long while ago now and the start really makes me cringe when reading back on it. However, keep on reading and I promise it gets better as the story goes on. Enjoy!

Alex Turner is bored with his life. The drunken nights and nameless girls have become routine in his high-speed lifestyle. But everything changes when he meets Indiana Hunt, an erratic college student who isn't afraid to say what she thinks. And when their two chaotic worlds collide, the results are catastrophic. • "We're both disasters," he said to me. "You and I, one big fucking mess." •

"If it's insanity, brand me infatuated." Leah Greene doesn't think much about the trip to California with her best friend until a hotel room mixup with the Arctic Monkeys and hollywood drama chasing her tail for it. Alex doesn't think much about the next few gigs in California after his recent breakup with Arielle. But after a rather awkward meeting between him and a fan, things are going to be changed between him and the band forever. [THIS IS NOT A SEQUEL. THIS IS A BETTER VERSION OF THE ORIGINAL.] IMPORTANT NOTE I left Wattpad years ago because suddenly I had a lot more pressure from school, and looked back on this story. I cringed so fucking much, but it brought back so many memories so I wanted to completely fix it. It won't get as many reads as the original but I wanted to put this out here anyways. Better version complete with: - NEW scenes - Foreshadowing - Realistic pacing - Grammar! - Better dialogue - Imagery - A standard (past) tense - Cut filler scenes - American spelling since Leah is American (even though I'm not) - Edited storyline - No confusing POV's - Fixed plot holes - Prior research - Actual common sense Thanks for all the support!

Just one more typical, stereotypical, full of clichés story about a writer girl who meets Alex Turner. Cover changed on the 07.04.2021 For the first one eternally grateful to @wxanderlust !
