❝If I told you something, would you be able to keep it a secret?❞

Jade has lost everything. One trip to the boardwalk during the off-season led to the tragic death of her best friend and not-so boyfriend Tom. His life had ended because of a dare, and Jade thinks it's all her fault. The only person able to convince her otherwise saw the whole thing. Harry had everything he ever wanted. As the one witness to the accident, he felt the need to be involved in the rest of Jade's well-being. At least, he was for the press. After all, the image of his band was everything, and this was an opportunity to make it right again. Jade was just a girl. That was until he realized all the things he had never amounted to what she had to offer, and that the everything she so longed for laid inside him. "Why do you care so much, Styles? You can have any girl you want, why me?" "I don't want to just want a girl, Jade. I want to need them. And I need you more than anything else."

People always said that Monday's were killers, though I never thought that statement would one day gain validity. On one faithful Monday, with one pull of a trigger, my life was burst into a million pieces, never to be repaired again. The bullet pierced through my own reality, just grazing the very core of my existence, yet penetrating the feeling of my own soul. I couldn't put the pieces of myself back together, nor did I ever want to. For, the one that I loved was the man who pulled that trigger, and I was to be his little secret. Cover made by SunCutie99
