When you're reading this story I can promise you one thing. Feels. This story starts at the beginning of 'The Greatest Showman.' I have no rights to the movie or the characters. Fic rated: PG-13 for some adult themes and mild language. Warning: There are adult themes in this story. There will be notices in a chapter that contains them before and after they happen. All of these themes (examples: self-harm, assault) are mildly used, and they all have negative outcomes. I'm not adding these things to the story to promote them. I'm just simply adding them to make the romantic plot more interesting. If you are struggling with a mental illness, or have been assaulted, do not hesitate to get help. You are important. And I love you. If you need help, talk to someone you trust, seek therapy or (in extreme cases) call 1-800-273-8255. I'm always open to talk to if someone needs it. 💕 Rankings: #12: greatestshowman #1: anneandphillip #2: annexphillip #1: zacandzen #2: Lettie #5: Carlyle #3: wd Text Copyright © journalist_wannabe12 ™ 2018 © All Rights Reserved ® journalist_wannabe12 ™

"Oomph!" The sound rushed out of my mouth as the door opened before I could reach the handle and my body hit a wall. I took a step back and realized that it wasn't in fact a wall, but instead a very attractive male. I looked up at his head to see a very messy, but sexy, mop of black hair on top of his head. When I looked closer, I noticed that his hair was a very deep brown that was probably often mistaken for black. My gaze traveled downward to his eyes, where I found two deep, ocean blue eyes looking back at me. My gaze travelled farther down to his crooked nose, to which I assumed came from too many fights. My eyes finally found his pink, very plump lips, which were turned into a sneer. "You have got to be kidding me!" His pink lips said in a very offensive voice. My eyes turned questioning as I looked back up into his eyes. "Whatever, lets finish this. I, Ashton Carter, reject you, as my mate." He, or Ashton, said with venom lacing his voice. He quickly turned and walked down the now vacant hallway with no glance back. Rejection? On my first day? The first person I make eye contact with at this school, rejects me. I guess that's how this school works, if the hottest boy in school rejects you, you're a nobody. So much for making friends, or mates, or whatever they call people at this school. I shake those ocean blue eyes out of my head and continue into the office to start my new life.
