Wake.

     Elise, a sophmore at Otaka High, has had better days. As the branded "new kid" to the school, she naturally doesn't have many friends. In fact, her lack of social contact had earned her a nickname amongst her peers.
Recluse.

     Luke was used to being pushed away. Whether it be family or friends, he's spent his entire life with people talking bad about him. With nobody to trust, he's locked himself in his own world with no escape in sight. Was it fear that drove them away or hatred, he looked for the answer within himself. Little did he know that he'd get the answer he's been searching for. Her.

But the friendship formed was cursed from the start. When they had thought things were normal, she discovered the real reason others were afraid of him. Will they conquer his demons together, our will his secret be too hard to bare?

Trust. Courage. Betrayel. Fear. All this and more await in one hell of a story.

"You have to stop living in your world of forgotten memories and broken dreams."

"This isn't a game, this is life, however you see it."

"It's not about us anymore. It's about you, me, and surviving."

"I'm like a sea of misery. the closer you get to me, the more likely you'll drown."

"I love you. That's why I can't stand it when you're around me."

"Do yourself a favor, run. Run as far as your legs will carry you. Run before you fall, and break your heart."

"A promise. A curse. And time. These and nothing more are what bind me to you."
