*cover made by weird_liv* DISCLAIMER: This Sebastian Smythe is NOT the character from Glee. The names are a coincidence and I did not know about that character at the time that I wrote most of this story. Artemis Novak has never been so excited to move. After all, she will be moving back to her hometown and see the friends she had to leave behind five years ago. But what she doesn't expect is the transformation of her former best friend, Sebastian Smythe. Sebastian is the bad boy of the school, getting into more fights than everyone at the school combined. Not to mention he smokes, drinks, parties, and rides a motorcycle. Nobody knows what happened, but he claims it's because his best friend left him without so much of a warning. Artemis knows something is up with her former best friend and she's determined to find out. But what happens when finding out what's up with Seb becomes trickier and more dramatic than it seems?

As his eyelids lowered, I let mine do the same, focusing on nothing but my heartbeat and his hands around my waist as I felt his lips finally press themselves against mine. And as he did that, a star - somewhere in our galaxy - exploded into a million pieces of stardust that rained down into our atmosphere. I hadn't been what he was looking for either, but he'd found me anyway. Copyright © 2014 IziKing. All rights reserved.
