His eyes widened and he let out an exasperated sigh "W-W-hat?" "Well I want to know how much I'm worth." It pained me to ask this question but I wanted to be strong. He shook his head and hesitated a few times before finally speaking "It doesn't matter Emma, your priceless to me. You mean everything -" I held up my hand to cut him off "So you were willing to risk something that meant everything to you for something that means absolutely nothing? Please tell me what you risked me for?!" He sighed and looked at the floor, clearly in shame.

Well-protected, she has no idea of the darkness surrounding Xavier Hunt, with his all-black attire and infrequent presence in school-accompanied by his bruises and scars. That is, until Haley catches a glimpse of Xavier's reality and is made to question everything she knows about family and life in general. The truth, she realizes, couldn't be more different from everything she has heard. Supported by her father, Haley sets her mind on helping Xavier any way she can, and what begins with tutoring sessions, free food, and random acts of kindness blooms into friendship and something a little more. But when Haley's admission into her dream college and another tragedy in Xavier's life threaten to undo everything she has worked for, Haley needs to decide if she'll stick by Xavier or simply be another person in his life that disappears.
