UNEDITED |Freya Livingston| has always liked being alone it's not that nobody wanted to be her friend it's more that she didn't want to be bothered. Her carefree attitude and effortless beauty has everyone wanting to be associated with the silver haired stunner. The only thing that seems to capture her undivided attention is her most beloved item, that darn sketchbook. Nobody knows what she's sketching with her delicate hands but they bet it's as beautiful as her. How will she adjust when she moves school for her senior year. [Luca Santiago] the definition of a golden boy. Being the captain of the soccer team and having top grades he's the boy your parents wishes you take home. Though being a top scoring student, he's anything but a nerd. With his seemingly perfect reputation and not to forget handsome features, he's quite the playboy. He gets everything he wants within a blink of an eye and he's everyone's idol. The only thing that prevents him from completely ruling the school is a certain leather jacket wearing, motorcycle riding guy, but he's planning on changing that soon. {Axel Andres} the certain leather jacket wearing and motorcycle riding guy. One look at him and you can tell he's up to no good, but then another look at him and you may fall in love. Which I highly suggest on not doing because he's not the commitment type. He barely even hangs out around anybody other than his own circle of friends. His cold exterior and icy glares make it hard for anyone to ever approach him and if they do then they usually end up regretting it. He's worked for everything he has which is not that much but he'll give hell to anyone who questions it. The story of a girl who wanted nothing more than to just be left alone being dragged in the very middle of rivalry she didn't ask for and she doesn't know it yet but she's the winning prize. A story about love and loss, rekindling old friendships and making new ones.

✗ "I'm sorry," I choked, the tears spilling down my cheeks. He shook his head and pulled me closer again. "Don't be sorry, just work on getting better," He said, rubbing calming circles on my back while I cried into his chest. His arms tightened around me and he pressed his lips against the top of my head, making me cry even harder. "I had never meant to hurt anyone. I just wanted to be good enough," I whispered. The guilt weighing heavy on my shoulders. "Briar," He said quietly, "You're so much more than good enough." ✗ Meet Briar Martin.

Can these two broken people fix each other, and find peace with themselves? Or are some things broken beyond repair?
