So there happens to be this guy. Yes, I know. It's always about a guy. Well, she's a teenage girl, what do you expect?
But anyway, the guy. He's...nice, supposedly. Ashlynn Johnson, however, couldn't care less about him. Ash, as her friends more affectionately call her, is more focused on soccer than anything.
It's Harper that really matters. You see, Harper is Ash's best friend. Now nothing seems bad yet, right? That's where you're wrong. Harper has a major crush on this supposedly nice guy. And, Harper is seriously frightened when it comes to talking to guys. Ash, however, is extremely outgoing and, stubborn as hell, so she does anything she wants. And when Harper pulls the puppy dog eyes, Ash stupidly agrees to help out her friend land this guy. Ash doesn't want to, and knows that all of this is eventually gonna go to shit, but, she has to try.
Even if it might all blow up in her face.
Which it does.
*CURRENTLY UNDER-GOING A LOT OF EDITING*
Iris Donnelly, at the golden age of seventeen, hasn't opened her heart up to anybody. Her philosophy is to get through her last year of high school with straight-A's and her head down. She believes that her heart belongs in her ribcage, not in anybody else's hands. Not only is the pressure of school on her though, but she has severe anxiety after her mother's death.
So what happens when she bumps into Pierce Wright, also known as the school's "bad boy"? What happens when she's supposed to be his tutor? What happens when they start to tear down their masks and really get to know all parts of each other - both the good and the bad?
And when happens when they become next door neighbors?
