Three things happened simultaneously: the beer bottle dropped from his hand and shattered on the floor, my father let out a deep, throaty chuckle, and his hand had struck me across the face. I put my hand on the spot he had just hit and felt the heat and sting of the impact. I looked down at the broken beer bottle, still holding my hand on my cheek, and I felt a heavy boot kick into my waist. I fought back tears and stayed silent. After a few moments, I heard the footsteps retreating and the sound of a door slamming shut. When I was sure he was gone, I looked away from the broken bottle, and tears welled up in my eyes. I never showed my weaknesses to my father, happiness was the last thing I wanted to give him. After a few minutes, I pulled myself off the floor and slowly approached my dresser, cautiously opening the top drawer and moving some socks out of the way. I pulled out a long blade, and with trembling hands, slid it across my wrist, adding to the collection of scars. I began to quietly sing a familiar tune that seemed to comfort me in times like this: “Heart beats harder, time escapes me, trembling hands touch skin, it makes it harder, and the tears stream down my face. If we could only have this life for one more day, if we could only turn back time…” My voice trailed off and I drifted to sleep.

Everything seems to be perfect, but there's only so high you can go before you fall down and hit the ground, and sometimes, even the people you're blood bound to can be willing to help you make the fall and drag you away from the one you love. The perfect relationship turns into being based on failed lies and there's only so long that lies can hold everything together before one person crumbles underneath the pressure. But the question is, how far are they really going to go to let true love bring things back together?

That's what Ivy Lane is carrying in her broken heart, when she gets an email from a famous magazine company asking for answers about her ex boyfriend, the famous Zayn Malik. And when she decides to give them - all of them, nothing but the bloody, painful truth - and a old memory gets remembered and shared with the world, will she get sucked back into the drama of her first love and his golden eyes again?

Everything was against it. but my heart wasnt. it had that little bit of hope that maybe it could be him....maybe just maybe " Its been 2 years since Alexis met HIM. the guy she fell in love with for three days.
