Opposites

"W-... Why a-are you talking t-to me?" Asher asks, his voice hardly audible but still there.

I grin, "I want to get to know you. You're interesting. You know? We're kind of opposites and opposites attract! I mean, not in that way, I mean, uh, k-kind of in that way...? But, uh, um, crap..."

Summer Woods is a cheerful teenage girl who is known for her wide grin. She's very curious and it sometimes gets her in trouble. She loves to talk and will do so for hours. She's a happy person.

Her brother, Brendan Woods, is very protective of her. He'll do anything to protect her and keep her out of trouble. In order the do that, he moved them out to a youth's home out in the wet lands. Summer's not mad about this, though, she'd take anywhere else from where they were.

Asher Shepherd is quiet, to say the least. He hardly talks and keeps to himself, steering clear of attention. Then again, why would he want attention? He knows it would only ever be because what he did wrong. Well, he thinks that.

Summer will change that.
