// "And in those small moments, holding him was the only thing that mattered, because the world felt far too big and I was hopelessly lost." // After her alcoholic mom left their family 12 years ago without a real reason, homeschooled Gable Marrow tries to find herself among the rubble. But all she finds is the patheticness of herself. For example, she hasn't seen her reflection in over 10 years, spends her free time re-watching episodes of Friends, while her only friend is a seventy year old British man who she calls her Teacher. But when the impossibly beautiful Jacoby Winters shows up on her doorstep one stupid night, she see things in a whole new perspective. Will this be the start of something new? This is her pathetic tale of hope, new friendship, and first love- a coming of age story about getting through life even though life may not seem to be worth living.

A/N: This is an unedited, significantly different version of the soon to be published novel by losangelesque aka L. Akhter. This draft was written when I was 15-18 years old and I highly encourage new readers to read the published version instead. Former high school football star Frank Novak meets profound and depressed loner Lolita Abri - and falls headfirst into love. Throughout the course of one school year, they unravel each other and their sadness, setting apart their differences and realizing that sometimes love isn't enough - and sometimes it just might be.
