All Arabella needs to do is get through her final year of high school, and then she can finally rid herself of all the bad things that happened to her in the past year. Her nightmares are back, her mom is gone, her dad is constantly worried she's going to kill herself, and there's a new boy named Gray who can't seem to leave her alone. To top it all off, the more Gray inserts himself into her life, the more inexplicable things begin to happen. Just one more year, how hard can it be?

"Bambi," Gray rasped. His voice was cold and sounded a million miles away, not the Gray I met three months ago- not the Gray I had fallen so deeply in love with. His blue eyes that stood out against his deep brown curls he had framing his face were now as cold as stone. He still calls you Bambi, he still cares somewhere deep inside of him. Deep was too far for me to grab.
"Please," I breathed through the suffocating tears and numbness of my skin. I would freeze to death if he didn't kill me first. "Gray, please don't do this."
His eyes looked over me, looking at what I had become. He didn't flinch, did not dare caress my face like he would have done before. He was gone, completely.
"It's already done," he spat.
