{ Watty 2015 Winner + Featured Story } Meet Sawyer Jameson. On the outside, she's a normal seventeen year old girl with amazing friends, a charitable job and a loving family. She's beautiful, funny and easy to get along with and just by looking at her, you'd think that she's the perfect girl, living in the perfect world. On the inside though, just waking up and living her day-to-day life is a struggle for Sawyer. Well, aware of this fact, Sawyer's mother forces to see a psychiatrist after school on a daily basis in order to cope with the tragic events Sawyer encountered a year prior. Now meet Graham Cambridge. Those who don't know him could easily stereotype him as being a blunt, selfish, egotistical golden boy, just because he likes to party and play football. Those who actually know him though know that he's actually quite the opposite of all of those things. When Graham transfers from his elite prep school to Sawyer's high school and quickly takes an interest in her, things go from bad to worse. At least, that's what Sawyer's convinced herself of. What people don't realize though is that maybe they were wrong about Graham Cambridge and that his life is about as far from perfect as they come and that he and Sawyer are alike in more ways than one. Two completely different teenagers that maybe aren't all that different after all are about to embark on a wild ride that neither of them could have ever expected. Can they help each other get past their demented previous tragedies? Or are their bygones too great to ever escape them? And can Sawyer ever truly be saved? Full of romance, heartbreak and just a little bit of fate, the next couple of months will challenge both Sawyer and Graham in ways they never thought possible. And maybe, just maybe, something beautiful will come out of it. © Copyright 2013 Millie Morgan. All Rights Reserved.

''So now that we're stuck with eachother. what's your name?'' He chuckled with a confused look on his face, but I kept my questioning gaze on him. ''You really don't know who I am?'' I shoke my head and sighed, was this guy ever going to get to the point? ''I'm David, you know? The most popular guy in our school? The school's badboy.'' When he said that I burst out in laughter. ''Y-you call yourself the schools badboy'' I said still laughing. He nodded proundly. ''That's ridiculous.'' he rolled his eyes and glared at me. ''So whats your deal? You're the daughter of a movie star but nobody at school knows who you are?'' ''Actually everybody at school knows me. They just made the smart decision to stay away.'' ''And why do they do that'' he looked so serious, it made me laugh ''Because otherways they would get into a hole shitload of trouble.'' he laughed. ''You're not that bad'' he said. Okay first rude. second who does he think he is he doesn't know me. -----------------
