Rhiannon and Shane are two sides of the same ill-fated coin. Their lives ran parallel until they collided in a small town bar one Saturday night, and everything spiraled from there. A story about the reality of addiction, mental illness, and the outcomes of setting yourself on fire to keep the people around you warm. Updated every Monday!

As June settles back into Pelican Town for a fresh start, she expects a calm and peaceful life devoid of any haunting memories from the city. Little does she expect the secrets lurking within the Valley, along with the mysterious dark haired boy who keeps himself isolated from everything; that is, until her. ★ This story is a first person female narrative!

Shane has been stuck in a perpetual routine for years; wake up, go to work, drink beer, then arrive home shitfaced. He's given up on taking care of his goddaughter or making his aunt proud. He's too far gone to change his ways, right? So he thought, up until a mysterious woman just happens to appear at all of the right moments. So why does it seem he's the only one who's ever met her? **THIS IS NOT AN X READER FANFIC** *MATURE CONTENT WARNING!
