As they say, everyone hides secrets, and some people, very deep ones.

An emotionally scarred and physically abused Dina McCarthy is considered dangerous, rebellious and short tempered by all the students of OakField High School. In other words, people call her the 'badgirl' of the school.

After all, why shouldn't they?
She smokes, she drinks, she gets into fights and does not talk to anyone.

Then one day, Drew Fisher joins the school. Cute, witty and smart, he too hides his own secret.

Will a secret for a secret heal their emotional scars or make them more painful?
 
Will their secrets pull them closer or drift them apart?

|| Featured FREE story with exclusive paid chapters - previously a paid story || When Haley discovers the truth behind Xavier, whose silence holds a deeper meaning, she sets her mind on making his life better one small step at a time. ***** Haley Rosamond is happy with her simple life, content under the wing of her father. Well-protected, she has no idea of the darkness surrounding Xavier Hunt, with his all-black attire and infrequent presence in school-accompanied by his bruises and scars. That is, until Haley catches a glimpse of Xavier's reality and is made to question everything she knows about family and life in general. The truth, she realizes, couldn't be more different from everything she has heard. Supported by her father, Haley sets her mind on helping Xavier any way she can, and what begins with tutoring sessions, free food, and random acts of kindness blooms into friendship and something a little more. But when Haley's admission into her dream college and another tragedy in Xavier's life threaten to undo everything she has worked for, Haley needs to decide if she'll stick by Xavier or simply be another person in his life that disappears.
