WATTPAD ORIGINAL EDITION When Elliot Goldman meets his sweet and charming new lab partner, Jordan Hughes, suddenly high school doesn't seem so bad. For the first time ever, Elliot can't wait to get to chemistry class... ***** Smart, good looking and charismatic, Jordan opens Elliot's eyes to the possibilities around him and gives him butterflies like nobody else does. Jordan isn't exactly the kind of person Elliot's used to having as a lab partner, but when they start acing their assignments, life is suddenly about more than boring lectures, bad cafeteria nachos, or relentless bullying. And then one night, the butterflies start to make sense - the trouble is, now nothing else does. As Elliot begins to figure out how he really feels about Jordan, he realizes that sometimes the last thing you are expecting is the one thing you need the most. [[word count: 40,000-50,000 words]]

Nico isn't enjoying this whole ride called "life". Then again he hated roller coasters and anything that made him panic as a whole. He thought life couldn't get any worse, but with him causing a fallout between him and his best friend, and only friend, Matty, life just doesn't seem worth living anymore. (TRIGGER WARNING!: This story touches on themes related to mental illness and eating disorders such as depression, anxiety, and anorexia. If the mention of these are any triggers to anyone, I suggest not reading the book. There is also a lot of vulgar language and mentions of drug and alcohol abuse.)
