† Pain will come to those who inflict pain unto others †
A friendship is what bonds most girls together. And for Nattie, she has just that. Her five friends: Billie, Samantha, Alexis, Marissa, and Clara are all super close, so close that they knew each and every one of each girls secrets, and never fought once. The girls always like to be around each other, and for that, they have a special ritual. They all walk to the special weeping willow tree at the Tanner Cemetery, where, coincidentally, all of their grandmas had been buried. One fateful night though, the girls find themselves in the path of a chaotic man, who has an appetite to kill. Taken from everything they know, and put into a hostile environment, the girls learn that they can only have one thing on their mind: survival. With romance starting to twist it's way into their horrific tale as well, will all the girls make it out alive, or one by one, will they end up walking alone... to their deaths?
Aria had a simple life, she had her friends, her brother, and her parents. At the time she thought life couldn't get any better; minus the guy she was in love with was having a hard time noticing she's the one. But when tragedy strikes, she doesn't know how to deal with it. Losing someone close to her and the guilt that eats away at her heart. How do you deal with it? The life she had known was gone. The pain feels like drowning. Though putting your life together is hard when you keep finding out people aren't who they say they are. Who could possibly help her keep her head above water? Someone she least expected? Could he be the one to save her, before it all becomes too much?
Ryder didn't leave much falsehood to rumors. A complete playboy. He didn't have much he cared about in life anymore, at least, other than his friends. They were the only ones who knew his dark secrets, the mystery that hid in his eyes. That's the way he liked it, usually keeping to himself, not giving a shit what anyone thought about him. When Aria walks in his life, things get shaken up. Now, life starts getting a little more interesting.
