"L-listen... I know, I-" he started, his voice sounding heavy and muffled from the tears that were starting to form. "I'm upset, too. W-we can forget-" I stopped his words by shoving him against the wall and kissing the heck out of his lips. I couldn't stop, I didn't care about it being disgusting -- because it didn't feel that way, it didn't feel wrong, and no one was there to tell me it was. (LGBT themes).

Ali Benning is a poor, ambitious girl who lives in the slums of Dock Garren, the backdoor of the affluent city of Ballard where she'd been attending the prestigious schools along with the rich kids through a string of scholarships year after year. Seth Wallace is the poster boy for happy-go-lucky rich boys who were too cute and too rich for their own good and he's determined to distract Ali to insanity. Will their two worlds crash and burn with them caught in between or will they prove to everyone that love is crazy, sweet? **Note by the Author** Hello readers! Just wanted to let you know that this is an earlier work I've finished several years ago. It's not very polished and I'm going in every now and then to edit it but I thought you'd all want to read the story all the way to the end so here it is.
