"If I spread my wings wide enough, I would be able to fly like those beautiful birds that reign the skies, right? I can escape from myself, can't I?"

*

The past burning up in flames tormented her but Christal was already used to it. Slowly, she stopped caring about being unfairly hated by every living soul that lay their eyes on her strange, lonely ones. Her precious childhood was ruined by her jealous aunt who blamed her for the unlit fires and memories she never made. 

But...

It finally seems like all things start changing for the best when she finally enters high school...
But why was does this new and happy world seem so unrealistic to her? 
A handsome and charming boy. And to top it all, a brighter future perhaps?

Happiness?

However, once she finds out about Christal's new found smile, her aunt doesn't take a liking to this brighter and happier Christal...what is she plotting? What is she going to do about it? 

...What has she already done...?

*

"The fire ate away at my beloved parents and grandparents. Everything. For that fire was like a scary demon tearing life out of my most loved then left only ashes as a cruel memory to torture my future self..."

She's the new girl, and everyone's obsessed with her. Perfect grades. Perfect looks. Perfect confidence. She doesn't need anyone, doesn't try to impress anyone. Guys want her, girls want to be her, and the whole school watches her like she's some kind of goddess. 𝐒𝐨𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐚 𝐀𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫 was the definition of control. A quiet perfectionist, she lived her life by a strict schedule, keeping everyone at arm's length. Smart, composed, and flawless, no one could break through her walls. That is, until Nathan noticed her. 𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫 was naturally brilliant, but unlike Sophia, he thrived in chaos. He didn't need to plan-he simply did what he wanted. And what he wanted was to push Sophia out of her controlled world. He liked the challenge, the fire he saw hidden beneath her cold exterior. Every time he teased her, every time he got close, he saw more of her untapped side-the part of her that was fierce and real. But what Nathan didn't know was that every time he talked to her, he was making her life harder. Her carefully constructed world was unraveling, and at home, she paid the price for letting anyone in. The more Nathan pushed, the more Sophia distanced herself, and Nathan couldn't figure out why. The more he wanted to break through her walls, the more he found himself tangled in the mystery of why she always kept him at arm's length.

"My sister, she's here." He paused, "Somewhere." "Oh," I frowned and look to my shoes. "Why are you here?" I felt his breath on my forehead. "Me?" I placed my finger on my chest.

Currently rewriting it so this is the first draft! ꧁꧂ Novaly always loved her calm life. Two lovely parents, a best friend, a passion for soccer, a nice house: she had everything. Until it all came to a crash when her parents died in a fire that burnt down her house. Now, by the end of her 17th year, she is an orphan, counting only on her friends to heal her unexpected bruises. Her friends wished she had a boyfriend, but never she interested herself in having one. It's true, she is a pretty girl. But not pretty enough to have every boy around her like other girls from school. But when her path crosses Ander's, her definition of loving changes.
