So she followed him. Rhys could feel her gaze every day. He kept his headphones in and his head ducked. Maybe she'll stop. And then she followed him. That's where this story begins, with the first few moments of what could be an epic love story or a tragic mistake. Maybe it'll even be a little of both.

"Who is he?" I ask Debra- the first friend I've made on my very first day here at St. Alexander high. "He seems like such a jerk" "Yeah, that's Tyler Cavelli" she replied "The typical high school rich popular hot boy, the one who thinks he's all that because all the girls want to be with him. You probably know his kind- the cliché highschool bad boy" "No I really don't know " I told her "Its actually my first time in highschool- my first time at any school" "Are you serious!? You've been homeschooled all your life?" Debra asked in surprise. "Yeah" I nodded. "Wow, I can't even imagine that" Debra responded shaking her head "Anyway that's Tyler and the one with the long hair is Lucan" "He's cute" I said to her. "Yeah he is, in fact the all of them that hang out together are hot, but they're all jerks; especially Tyler and Lucan... Their parents are business partners and friends so you know they are also good friends too but..." *****Brrriiinnnggg....**** "I'll tell you more about them on our way to class" Debra said hooking her arms with mine "Come on" CLEANERS- the name sounds dirty right? Well that's because it is. A cleaner is one whose job is to get rid of the mess right- they obviously clean something or maybe... someone? When there is a society that is practically run by crime with high scale criminal groups and prominent business men are often the ones behind it, what better way to try and get rid of these high level of 'criminals' than raising a set of unfortunate and underprivileged individuals as trained 'cleaners' to get rid of them. Fight fire with fire right? Use a thief to catch a thief? Reel them in with baits? Put these cleaner in important government jobs as covers for example the police officers?

"Ava, you have to be quiet! They'll hear you-" Tears started to spill from my eyes, blending in with the rain that dripped down my face. I shouldn't have come here. The last time I followed someone I made accidentally noise and got them killed. I had to get away from Jaxon. I turned on my heel, ready to run to, but Jaxon grabbed my wrist. "Let go" I choked, "I have to leave. You're in danger-" The next thing I knew, his lips crashed onto mine. His arms wrapped around my body, pulling tightly to his chest. "Stop it" I sobbed, unable to control my trembling. "Why are you doing this? Let me go-" "I had to get you quiet" he murmured. "Please Ava. You have to try to calm down. I understand you're scared right now, but you have to trust me. We're going to get home safely. Stay with me a few more minutes, and then we'll get the f*ck out of here. I promise." -- A little about Ava: She has made the long move from Detroit, Michigan to California to escape her gruesome past.

----- In serious need of revision! ----- Wanna-be journalist Kate Santoro would do anything for the scoop. Anything. Including finding her way into an underground club exclusive to only those in the Genovese mafia and the beautiful women they employee. What could be more perfect? She would stick to the shadows, snap a few videos, and write the biggest story New York has ever seen, therein making her a legend! Easy as pie. Until she gets found. A series of blatant lies and lucky breaks later and she is mistaken to be one of the workers underneath. While many might be terrified of this predicament Kate couldn't be more excited. The freedom to roam the area and talk to the members of the infamous brotherhood will leave no rock unturned. All she has to do is keep her cover until the night is over and the workers go home. What a fantastic position she is in! There are just two problems. One being him. Alessio. The Don, the Godfather, the Capo di tutti capi (the boss of bosses) who has taken a keen interest in Kate. Even that is something she could probably handle for one night. Except problem number two. They don't leave. Not at the end of the night, the end of the week, or even the end of the month. Alessio's interest in Kate threatens to expose her, something she would surely die from. He knows she doesn't belong but it's not as though she could have just waltzed in, right? By the time Kate realizes that not even the greatest scoop is worth the price, she is in far too deep to call it quits now. ~~~Praise for When The Sun Goes Down~~~ Natasha427: "It was so captivating that I may or may not have spent the last several hours holed up in my room frantically scrolling down to read more.
