I can see his figure in the distant streetlight. His hair looks like it's on fire in the dim haze. My foot is killing me, but I walk a little faster, he finally sees me. He jogs to engulf me in a hug. We stay like this for several moments. "I'm always here Grace, don't you ever forget that." He wraps me tighter.

"I know, Jack." 

Grace Reid wishes she had a white picket fence life. Boring is safe, and her life is anything but boring. Because of her father, she has more to deal with than the average fifteen year old. Her best friend Jack is the person who keeps her sane through the mess, but when they are threatened to be separated by a sudden twist of events, she fears she might fall apart without him. When one last horrendous crime brings her to her knees, Jack stands by her. How will she ever stand on even ground with the person who saved her life? Maybe, she'll find a chance to change his.

Normal isn't a term Olivia Hernandez is familiar with. Her mother is dead to an abnormal disease, leaving her wallowing in scattered memories. Her father is abusive and never sober, leaving her treading through glass shards of beer bottles. There's too many unclear secrets her family has, and so she can only act as if that's "normal". Her eyes are bright, and yet, her skin is littered in scars. Olivia meets Alex James, the son of her mother's best friend. And where do they meet? A graveyard. How oddly compelling. When the two find each other at her mother's grave, Olivia can't help but feel close to him, even with his harsh and yet somewhat caring atmosphere. Not only are his pretty bluebell eyes alarmingly alluring, but the memories he brings back to her are even more appealing. They had a hidden past, tied together by Olivia's deceased mother and toxic father. They had a hazy future, tied together by Alex's bastard of a father and Olivia's childhood nemesis. This was their reality. A reality for a boy with the prettiest bluebell eyes and a girl who would forever be a scarred beauty. ~~~ "You told me that you loved me," I said quietly as we walked across the golden fields, out of the nightmare of a territory. I peered at him to see his eyes half-closed, as if he was fighting and struggling to keep them open. "You told me to trust you." His blue eyes glanced at me for a moment before falling back to the ground. The sun began rising behind us as we continued on our path, shining rays of gold and orange light on us. I sniffled and smiled lightly, but it was without humor. "But I don't know if I can keep this up anymore..." [ DISCLAIMER: This concept was developed during my middle school years. The plot may be seriously underdeveloped, so unless you aren't looking to read a picture-perfect book, you're not where you should be. ]

"Christan why are you always showing up and throwing my boyfriend around? You aren't my brother so you don't get to choose who I date." I snapped as the rain-soaked the white summer dress I had on. "I do if who your dating isn't me. I've told you before Riley you're mine." He said clenching his bloody fist. "Miles wasn't good enough for you. No one is." "But you are?" I asked. "No, I'm far from it. But I can't help but think about you whenever I look at another girl. You're the first thing that's on my mind when I go to sleep and the first thing I see in my head when I wake up. I'm so fucking crazy about you." He said. I let a few tears out. "What about Taylor? What happened to you not wanting to lose him as a friend?" I asked. "I was wrong when I denied you. It meant more to me then I thought but I couldn't see that. I already got my ass beat by Taylor when I told him. But I explained to him that I would fix it. I'm in love with you, Riley Brown and I don't want to lose this feeling for nothing." He said. "You don't get it. You hurt me, Christan. You don't get a second chance to make it up. You don't get to spit this confession and expect me to forgive you. This isn't a sappy love story. I refuse to forgive you." I said. "Please." He said. "I gave you everything and you throw it away. What more could I give you?" I asked. "Just a kiss." ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Riley Brown daughter of a lawyer and a cop. She was a 16-year-old who had a secret. She had a crush on her brother's best friend. Christan Grey's son of a drunk and a nurse. He was an 18 year old with only one desire.
