(Originally Lockwood)
Emerson Lockwood, the sweetest, funniest 16 year old you'd ever meet. Wouldn't hurt a fly with his own bare hands. All that seems to change after he witnesses, something no one should ever have to encounter.
Now a stoic, angry, mysterious Emerson is left and there's no turning back. Or so he thinks.
Sage Delgatto, his former bestfriend who knows him inside and out. Some would say she knows him better than he knows himself. The question is, is that true? And is she able to bring back the Emerson everyone loves? Including her.
