Emily..a sweet girl who is sixteen, and has a best friend. He is the only one she has, and she loves him to death...literally. Will he be able to save her from herself? Will he stop her from stepping off the edge of the old, abandoned building? Only time will tell...or is it too late? I just want to let my on coming readers know that: 1. There IS self harming in this. 2. There IS an eating disorder in this. 3. There IS a suicide attempt in this. 4. I do NOT support/promote ANY of these activities. *If you are suffering from any of these and depression, please talk to someone. This is not a battle that you have to go through alone and/or lose!*

Tessa Young is an 18 year old college student with a simple life, excellent grades, and a sweet boyfriend. She always has things planned out ahead of time, until she meets a rude boy named Hardin, with too many tattoos and piercings who shatters her plans.

"I love you, Ashton" I whispered to his sleeping face, being careful so he doesn't hear. Quickly kissing him on the cheek, I run away knowing that he can't know, and he will never know. I'm in love with my bestfriend. "Diana?" Ashton's voice stops me. Tears threaten to fall down, but I push them away. "Yes?" "Could you please call Mel?" He replies. I nod and walk away.
