We try to figure out the real meaning of love. But how come nobody can define it? Why is it that every time you fall in love you always end up hurt? Will you catch me when I fall? I'm slowly breaking, my heart is torn. What use to be a happy life, is slowly fading away. I'm living in hell. People say I love you but do they actually mean it, or are they just saying it and not knowing what it means?

******READ A BIT OF MY LATEST CHAPTER TO SEE HOW MUCH MY WRITING HAS IMPROVED LIKE HONEST ITS SO CRINGEY I CANT****** Falling in love with your best friend seemed too cliche for my liking, so me and my best friend always knew we weren't going to do just that. However, life is so unexpected and before I knew it, I had a brain tumor, was stripped of my old life and given a new one. A life without my best friend, Niall Horan. I left the X Factor, where I had made it up to bootcamp, but it didn't matter. My dreams were crushed, there was no hope. I never did tell Niall, about my brain tumor and just cut contact with him. He didn't need to worry about me. What I didn't realize is that Faith also comes into play and well Faith does whatever the hell it wants. So next thing I know, here I am, reunited with my best friend. My brain tumor is gone, and I have my best friend back. It's times like these where I realize it's just a little too good to be true. And it is. Slowly, without even meaning to, I start falling for the boy who was none other then my best friend. Everyone knows falling in love with someone you simply cannot have is a nightmare, and I feel as though this nightmare will just never end.

Avery has always dreamed about going to California, so when her mom suggests they stay with her friend Selene in Huntington Beach for the summer, she's completely stoked. She becomes great friends with Selene's kids, Adrianna and Owen, and together they meet the Boys of Emblem3. Avery becomes close to Wesley, and she immediately realizes that he's different from any guy she's ever met. Many obstacles test the couple's relationship, but ultimately their trust in eachother is what pulls them through. That is, until an unexpected visitor turns Avery's world upside down... A/N: This book takes place about a year before Emblem3 decided to audition for X Factor. Before auditioning for XF, Emblem3 was going to audition for America's Got Talent, but they decided the competition wasn't for them so they bailed on the audition. This is why AGT is mentioned in some of the later chapters. No worries guys, I know they didn't actually audition for AGT! I just wanted to write my story accurately so it matched what actually happened in Wes/Keaton/Drew's lives before the X Factor :) I hope this clears up some confusion! Cover by InkStainedRebel
