Everything in this world is not so unexpected "I'm fine"

Some things don't happen. Some do. And some are completely unexpected. This something was a something like that. And I don't regret a second of it. Summer 2011. Fifteen year old Emma Brooks goes on a holiday to Italy with her parents and brother. They're going to Puglia, in the south. Her parents have friends there with a little Bed & Breakfast near the sea. It's the third time they go there. It's a relaxing, cosy place, but there usually aren't any tourists apart from retired north-Italians and, with a bit of luck, a single einzelgänger with sporting shoes and safari hats. But this time, a magical creature appears: a teenage boy called Michael Clifford.

Jessica was 17 when everything changed for her. Her mum met a new guy and decided to drop everything and move to the other side of the world to be with him. That's where she met him. From that day on everything changed.

"All I have is you guys, but I couldn't ask for anything more." I rose my glass to the people I thought I would hate and realized they're the ones I love the most. The place I used to dread became my dark paradise. The bitter sweet taste of my world changing for the better.

"I couldn't save anybody! I couldn't even save myself!" "You saved me."

Arabella Turner was just an ordinary teenage girl, the best she ever did was blend in with the crowd and keep her eyes low at all costs.

But when two extraordinary opposites begin to fall for each other, it's only a matter of time before rumours spread and people go out of their way to sabotage. Just how much of this can they take before their whole lives tear apart?
