She's been in and out of foster are her whole life, and it wasn't until two months ago that she actually got accepted by a decent family. She has had trouble her whole life making, keeping, and opening up to friends- let alone anyone.

She develops this inner war with herself as she gains feelings for her that go way beyond a student teacher relationship.

Will her crush remain as just that? Will Regina see her as more? And what will happen when she finally lets her walls down?
