"If you are ever lucky enough to come across something so beautiful it shifts your whole world, don't ever let that go." Beckett Davis: I've been in love with Bailey Connors since I was 7 years old and she gave me back my soccer ball. We've been neighbors for years, even sharing windows facing each other's bedrooms. Our families are close, I view her grandfather as my own. The only thing is, I still can't bring myself to say more than a few words to the girl who occupies most of my thoughts. Going into my last year of high school, I needed the chance to have my world shifted by Bailey Connors. Bailey Connors: I broadcasted my crush on Beckett Davis in the 2nd grade after decorating him a cookie. And every time after that when I can't control how my face heats around him. My grandfather adores the boy next door, and who doesn't? I'm embarrassed of how long it took me to reach for things I may want, instead of just letting things happen to me. Beckett's seen some of my worst moments from afar, but what would it be like for him to see them up close? #1 in bookworm #1 in highschoolromance #1 in foundfamily #1 in goldenretriever #1 in neighbors #1 in teenromance #1 in friendstolovers

"Help, I have done it again, I have been here many times before." - *Breathe Me*, Sia . . . . . . . . . . Some loves hurt. Some loves scar. And some loves leave bruises you learn to hide. AURORA has already learned the cost of trusting the wrong person. She's careful now. Guarded. Built from walls and sharp edges, stitched together with survival and stubbornness. Love, to her, is something that breaks - not something that stays. And then there's THEO. Infuriating. Impossible. Too perceptive for his own good. He sees the cracks she pretends aren't there. The softness she buries. The fear she refuses to name. He is her storm - loud, reckless, relentless. She is his shelter - quiet, steady, the place he doesn't know how to deserve. Every fight pulls them apart. Every stolen moment pulls them closer. Every heartbeat risks shattering what little they have left intact. Because when the past refuses to loosen its grip, when love feels like standing too close to the flame, sometimes the only way forward... ...is to set yourself on fire. . . . . . . . . . . He never meant to fall this hard. She never meant to let him in. But some hearts don't break quietly. They bruise. "I think you're going to have to ask me again," I murmured, tilting my chin up. "But like, really nicely this time." Theo blinked. "You're serious?" "Deadly." A second passed. Then another. I watched the way his tongue ran along the inside of his cheek, watched his hand flex like he was trying not to grab me too fast, too rough. And then, softer now-different-he said, "Rory." Just my name, but it held more weight than anything else. "Please, baby. Let me kiss you."
