Someone Like Me

"I really like you, Aria."
My body jolted with electricity when I heard my name roll of his tongue. It sounded so familiar, yet so different.
"I want you to know that I really like you. You're different from all the other girls. You don't throw yourself at me for attention, I was just drawn to you. You are beautiful and that Gabe wasn't worth one second of your time. I think you deserve someone that loves you."
It was then I knew that maybe I could love again.
"Someone like me."

Ari Patel has it hard.
She goes to an all-white private high school, and she's Indian.
Things are tough, especially when rumors are getting thrown around about her and her ex-boyfriend, Gabe.
And when Josh Adams transfers to school, he gets all the attention, especially from the ladies.
Things are tough for Josh at home, but when he sees Ari, he's happy.
But Ari thinks she can never love again. Not after the bad things that happened with Gabe.
Can she?
