Desperately trying to make up for her mistakes, Bel is bullied by her former best friends. Running away and almost drowning in the ocean proves to make her life a little more than interesting. When 14 year old Tate pulls Bel from the raging waters, his past life is a mystery to her. While trying to find out why he was hiding in a cave by the bay, Bel returns to find Tate missing. Walking home, she ran into him and he was desperate to get away. Kissing her goodbye, he left. A few weeks on, Bel wonders if he will ever return and if she will ever feel happy again.
