I didn't blink, I wouldn't give them the satisfaction. "Ha! Serves you right monster! And this is only the beginning! Prepare for it!" One of the boys laughing shouted at me. Why do people hate me? I didn't do anything wrong. His blood red hair and sea foam eyes... Looking down to the ground as he held onto a small teddy on the swings. He visibly panicked "N- No stop! Don't come any closer! Don't hurt me!" My eyes snapped to his, hurt him? "Why?" I asked simply. He looked at me, then my hand on his shoulder, "Wh-Why what?!" I registered his worry, "Why would I hurt you?" I answered back. We were the same. We were the exact same.

His hands got caught in my hair as he kissed me harder. Our tongues danced together and he shoved me up against the wall. My fingernails scraped down his bare back and he lifted me up to wrap my legs around his waist. He kissed a trail down to my neck and then froze. “You’ve been smoking.” He said pulling away from me. I sighed as he set me down and took a step away from me. “I smoked once today, ok? It’s not that big of a deal.” “Lissa!” Jace shouted at me. “You promised you’d stop! You said you were done with drugs a long time ago.” “I promised a lot of things that I never did!” I screamed back him. He raked his hands through his hair and started pacing. “Drugs aren’t good for you, Lissa. You need to stop.” “You can’t control my life.” I snapped. “I won’t be with you if you’re too high to remember any of it.” “Then maybe I’ll go back with Trey.” **** Lissa finally decides to go back to her families vacation house for the summer. She’d always been treated as ‘one of the boys’ by the other kids who went to the vacation house.

She also has another secret neither of them knows about, how shocked will they be when they find out? With all of their longtime friends, the beach, the sun, and the freedom they’re sure to get into loads of trouble, and fun. But will romance ruin a friendship?
