Ashton Moore has been secretly admiring him from afar for a long time. The school bad boy with a trademark leather jacket and a closed off disposition. Still, she'd never considered dating him for three reasons.
1) It's graduating year and she definitely doesn't have time for a boyfriend. Good grades, college applications, keeping her family together and dealing with her three best friends is more than enough.
2) Her parents have enough to deal with her two brothers without worrying about her rebellious relationship. She'd never dream of piling more on them.
3) Every time she touches someone, she sees moments before their death. Not exactly relationship material.
Noah Anderson has his own problems and doesn't need some stuck up girl with a million problems to end up on his doorstep. If he can get a football scholarship and get the hell out of dodge within this next year than he'll be fine. Until a fight on the first day back to school pushes Ashton into his space. He tried to lose her but she won't stop showing up, and he can't fight the relief when she comes bouncing back after each time he pushes her away.
After the two are thrown together Ashton makes a mistake she hasn't made in years. She holds his hand. She's tried to stop deaths before and has always failed. But one this gruesome and so soon she'll do whatever it takes to stop it.

Black & White
A story, in which a typical teenage girl falls for the school's bad boy. Except, she's not that typical and he's not that much of a bad boy. *** "If I told you that I care about you, more than anyone in your life does, would you believe me?" He asked me, his jaw clenched. I could tell he was furious. Yet somehow, I wasn't scared of him. "No" I shook my head bravely. "If I told you,'' He tried again, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath before continuing.''That you make me so fucking mad, I want to punch a fucking wall. What would you say?" He had me trapped now, my back painfully colliding with the wall behind me. I gasped at the impact, looking up into his icy grey eyes. They were cold, emotionless. As always. "Do it!" I dared him with the last ounce of courage I had left in me. The sound of his fist smashing through the wall right next to my head, made my ears ring for a brief moment. I opened my mouth to speak again, shaking slightly, only for him to pull away and leave me standing there alone. ____ !!Warning!!
