🙃 His Missing Smile 🙃

"I just wanna see my best friend smile again. Is that really so wrong?"

~*~

It's been 3 years since Joshua Watson disappeared. 3 years since he left with nothing more than a cryptic goodbye. 3 years since Aurora Green was left behind.

But now Josh is back and Rory is determined. She wants to know what happened to her friend who has changed so much. Tattooed and never truly smiling, he's not the 14 year old that Rory knew and she wants to know why.

Josh is also determined: determined to never let Rory discover what happened. When he returns to see Rory is still the innocent, floral-loving girl he left behind he is determined to keep her that way. There is no way he's going to be the one to ruin her innocence, to expose her to the real world he knew all too well. Josh well not be the one to corrupt her.

Rory doesn't mind a little corruption. She will do anything to figure out what happened to her old friend over those 3 years but, more importantly, she'll do anything to find his smile, even if it takes her own away.

⚠️⚠️⚠️WARNING⚠️⚠️⚠️

There will be mentions of different types of abuse (physical and sexual) and past attempted suicide. There will be a warning at the beginning of each chapter where these things are mentioned and I will say if it is a minor mention or a descriptive if-your-triggered-by-this-be-warned thing.
