Mara Davis was happy that her best friends had found love. However, she didn't expect her life to change so much because of it. Now she is 19 and about to start her sophomore year of college, with new friendships thrown her way and new challenges ahead.
Aaron Lahey and Mara couldn't be considered friends, but because of their closest friends dating they had been forced to spend a lot of time together. Most of the time they couldn't stand each other, they only communicated through snarky remarks and constant bickering. But they had an unspoken agreement: every time they would go out, he was her ride home.
They may be complete opposites in every way, but so many car rides home together could have left their mark. Don't you think?

Childhood Sweethearts

I sneered up at him with distaste, wanting to wrap my fingers around his neck and strangle that smirk off of him. He brushed my golden hair from my face, his long, slender fingers sparking electricity in my skin, making my knees wobble together. "Will you ever, forgive me?" he whispered huskily, his eyes intently staring into mine. His face was only mere inches from me. I just needed to reach out a little further to kiss him... "Yeah. Over my dead body." I snapped, before throwing my arms out forcefully, shoving my hands into his chest, pushing him from me. -*-*-*- He, is Carter Williams. I, am Lacey Adams. We were once, inseparable. The 'Golden Couple'. The unbreakable best friends, that everybody envied. Nothing could get between us. A part from being tighter than white on rice, we updated our status from friends to being in a relationship, frequently. We were neighbours, which meant our families were all close and even co-owned houses around our town. This, all is, until the day of my sixteenth birthday. Everything changed. The loving relationship we shared, was severed and torn apart. I couldn't hardly stand to look at him any more, without spitting fire that is. Every day is torture being around him.

Leaving me to stay with Carter and his parents, who are never home. We would be alone. In one house. Under the same roof. If I was insane before, I have no idea what I am now. © 2016 by LaurenJ22.
