"Eleanor, what do you think pain is really all about?" Booker asked, his light blue eyes cast towards the stars. I shrugged, the thought swirling around in my mind. "I had never really thought about it until now." I replied honestly, looking down. He sat up and shoved his hands in his makeshift pockets and looked down upon me. "I think pain is progress. Something that helps one to learn of themselves." Booker said, his tone laced with something I couldn't quite read. The world Eleanor lives in is that represented by the aches of one's heart. Blades protruding from one's back tells a story each of the hardships and pain they have endured in their lives. When a mysterious boy shows up in the forest, Eleanor and her brother Nathaniel take him in. But what seems to be an innocent boy from a far away land, contains a past covered in bloodshed and despair.

"I need you to be the put together one because I'm so fucked up. You've saved me." He whispers. "Carter, we saved each other." I mutter looking at him through my eyelashes. I lean into him, our lips not even an inch apart. "Sophia we shouldn't..." He looks hesitant. "Please, I need you." I almost started crying. "Please." I mutter one more time, my eyes begging for him. My body needing him. Sophia Carrington. She just moved from New York to California in search of a new life. When her life took a dark turn she's forced to leave everything behind. She just wants to finish her final year of high school, numb to the world, while learning to cope with the trauma she's endured. Carter Marquez. Newly single after being dumped by his girlfriend of two years. After losing his dad in a car accident he's fallen apart. The list of people he trusts is short, he hates letting people in. He's constantly trying to make up for his mistakes of the past, trying to find a new purpose in life. When the two of them collided, they instantly took a mutual disliking to each other. Misunderstandings and a dash of alcohol set a flame between them. Sophia hates the snarky remarks and stupid nicknames that leave his mouth. Carter thinks Sophia is just another trust fund brat. Soon their rivalry begins to dissolve and they learn that sharing the pain of their past can form connections they never thought to be possible.
