After a particularly terrible experience with her adoptive father and a few drinks, Rebecca Harrison finds her much-needed escape from reality in her soon-to-be biology teacher. When the two meet again at the beginning of the school year, neither know what to make of the situation. But their conflict with each other is no match for the conflict Rebecca faces with her adoptive father, and the two soon find themselves developing a relationship that tests both of their willingness to let others in. For entirely different reasons, they find themselves pushing each other away. Until they realize that their reasons aren't so different at all. This story is girlxgirl, teacherxstudent, and it deals with topics such as abuse, alcoholism, and suicide. It's my best work but it can be depressing at times & may be triggering to some. [Editing on-going, Sequel - TBD]

Jessica took a deep breath and ran a hand through her long dark hair. "Alex do you even hear yourself right now? Dont you see she's trying to pull us apart?" I could see the frustration and tears building in her eyes. This isnt what i wanted. How did it all get so bad? "Jess i love you okay and believe me i wont ever let anything pull us apart. why wont you believe me when i say there's nothing going on?" "Because that's not the TRUTH!" She chuckled and ran a hand over her face. She stood up and grabbed her bag, "I dont think you realize it, but slowly we're drifting apart and that's exactly what she wants. So before i can give her the satisfaction; maybe we should just break it off." My eyes widened as she put on her shoes and left out the condo. I felt like my whole heart shrivelled and died right there. Its been 3 years and Alex and Jessica are back still happy with each other.... or so it seems. Everything is calm and their both carefree and enjoying their new lives. But what happens when a thing of the past comes to haunt them? Will their love be enough for them to find their way back to each other and Begin Again? Only one way to find out :)

Alex is not shy, she's simply following her rules to hide in the background of life in general. Or at least she's doing her best to be 'at the fardest end of the social spectrum' Strictly reserved to her own things that vary from music to... pretty much anything related to that, Alex lives the normal life of a highschool student who doesn't wish to engage in deep conversations with no one. Not even her family even though ocassionaly she has to. One day around the middle of the school year, she coicidentially (yeah right. I wrote it :D) is asked by a new beautiful girl the simple favor of helping her find the exit of the school building. Of course, you could expect her to try to avoid her, wouldn't you? === So this is the new story guys! So excited. Kewk :3 P.S. I don't own any of the songs that I use in this book, they're just for the sake of the storyline as I really enjoy music very much and I wish for it to be included in my books.
