In the daylight, Sophia Laforteza looked like every cliché of perfection-student body president, captain of the girls' volleyball team, lead in every musical-the kind of girl whose presence made lives orbit around her. Everyone adored her. Everyone wanted her. But there was something no one knew. She had a secret. And Manon knew it. ~ This can also be found on AO3.

Sophia hides her flaws behind a polished image. However, when Manon sees through her facade, something shifts. For the first time, Sophia allows Manon to witness her vulnerabilities and the insecurities she usually keeps hidden. In this moment, trust begins to grow as she silently hands the keys to her heart to Manon. Their relationship takes a rocky turn the next morning. For better or worse, everything changes between them. Yoonchae will weep, Daniela will nag, Megan will deliver an Oscar-winning performance, and Lara will hide in the bushes-all in an effort to help them regain what they once had. Will it work? That is the question-eagerly anticipated. Or will it all be in vain? Fear not! Eventually, Sophia will trust Manon completely, believing that she will catch her if she falls, and Manon will be willing to forgive. ~ This can also be found on AO3.
