This is my first story EVER!!! Positive feedback please!
Have you ever had a best friend that moved away unexpectedly? Have you ever had the chance to see them again and you never wanted to let go of them AGAIN? Well, that same thing is happening to Matthew Anderson.
Matthew Anderson is a smart, average, normal 16 year old boy. So smart, that he exceeds all expectations and has one of the top school GPA's not only in his school, but in the entire state of North Carolina. His best friend, Stephanie Walker, moved from North Carolina to California because of her parents' job opportunity. It's been 6 years since they saw each and 4 years since they even talked. Now, after all these years, Matthew gets to see her again. However, will Stephanie's looks and attitude change the way Matthew views her?
Stephanie Walker is a beyond gorgeous, sassy, queen bee (more or less, a bitch). Her grades are above average but she really doesn't care. All she cares about is grabbing all the boys' hearts for two seconds and breaking it the second they fall for her. Every boy in every grade falls for her even if she's 16 and a sophomore. However, there's one boy she despise and that is her FORMER best friend, Matthew Anderson. She hates everything about him. His looks, his perfect GPA, everything. All she wants is to make his life a living hell. But, will she realize that everything they have been through together is not something to just throw away?
Find out if Matthew and Stephanie will rekindle their friendship (possibly become something more) or just forget about each other forever.
