Meet Sophie Taylor, a clumsy nerd with low tolerance for anyone annoying and no relationship experience whatsoever... Unless you count Xavier Mason. Who's he? Only the reason why she's so afraid to ever love again. But yeah it's a good thing he moved away after brutally crushing her. At least... That's what Sophie thought until she met him at her local supermarket, leaving her with all kinds of questions. It's almost as if Sophie senses he's hiding something BIG and that it's the answer to all of her questions... Author's Note: The story was on hiatus for several years, but I am back to complete it!! *CW: Self-Harm/Suicide, Death/Dying, Mental Illness*
