Peyton has no family. Her parents died in a car crash, her grandparents died a while ago and she's an only child. She's been to at least fifteen funerals in her lifetime, for family but now she only has one more funeral to go to. Her own.

alice, a local girl in her last year of art school finds herself falling for a mysterious man that always wears black. geoff, a guitarist trying to make extra money by playing for various bands outside of his day job of checking inventory, is intrigued by a beautifully different girl that lives in his apartment complex. geoff wigington doesn't have much care for anything at the moment, his band waterparks is currently on a hiatus and he only cares about his music. that is, until alice harper is caught listening in on him singing and playing his guitar. spur of the moment decisions can turn into beautiful things. UNEDITED both pov's (not back and forth) + au *frequent updates (almost everyday) and intended short chapters and lower case*

in which a 22 year old awsten knight from the band waterparks falls for 17 year old maisie williams after seeing her at a local show. they both think that they know how the other works. they don't. "without you I'm a lost boy." WAS NOT AWARE OF THE ACTRESS WITH THE SAME NAME, THIS STORY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HER. UNEDITED* update: so, this is super cringey but hey, must be good if it's the number 1 awsten fic ;) also it was started and completed in 2017 so there's that. note that all of the waterparks boys are 3 years younger in this story although it is in present tense. also note the au, meaning there's some other differences but not much, it's mostly going along with the age, but this is also a work of fiction (sadly), so I mean. intentional lowercase, frequent updates, and chapter get better (and longer) as the book progresses.
