"One day, someone is going to hug you so tight, that all your broken pieces would stick together." Charvi Brooks, a simple girl from a not so simple family. All she ever cared about was having enough money to go to college. Living a double life, what could go wrong? Except from a certain someone finding out her secret. Zane Rivers, quarterback and team captain, most popular guy in school and Charvi only knows him as 'That Guy'. She even gets his name wrong. And he doesn't plan on saying her name right. When these two clash, what could possibly come out of it?

"You pick him all the time!" He yelled at me. "Can we choose who we love?!" I yelled back. Reveka Brooks has been in love with her best friend, Sam Carter, for years now. She finally thinks he feels the same way because of an incident between them, but everything goes downhill when he does not remember. "About last night..." I trailed off, hoping he'd know what I was talking about so I won't have to say it myself. His brows creased in confusion. "What about last night?" He doesn't remember then. "Nothing," I said hastily. I wouldn't want to complicate things. He's my best friend, after all. She's pretty sure of what she feels for Sam, but Eddie comes back and causes her to feel doubt about what she really feels for who. And on top of that, her friend, Ella, is also back, and Sam sees Ella as more than a friend, which pretty much complicates things. Reveka needs to sort things out before her time runs out, and they aren't as patient as she hopes.

Ellie and Kayla have been best friends for as long as they remember. What a pity that you can't pack your best friend in a bag and take her to college with you. After planning they'd not be separated because of lengthy facetimes, a gazillion text messages and a few visits, they realize they are busier than they expected and are drifting apart faster than you can blink an eye. It's been a year and they'd lost almost all contact just enjoying the fact that they love each other, although it's not enough. Then out of the blue, on a Friday evening, Ellie leaves Kayla a voicemail that shatters her heart into a billion pieces in sadness for her friend. She goes on a 5-hour drive to Ellie's college to remind her that she may be broken, but not abandoned. Word count: 978/1000
