"The best kind of people are the ones that come into your life, and make you see the sun where you once saw clouds. The people that believe in you so much, you start to believe in you, too. The people that love you, simply for being you. The once in a lifetime kind of people."

Seventeen year old Casey Stevenson has the average life of any teenager: get up, go to school, come home, hang out with friends (we'll just exclude the part where her boyfriend is the most popular guy in school, her friends are a gaggle of crazy weirdos, and her family is super rich).
However, when she suffers through a breakup and the dramatic aftermath, it's the people she is closest to that help her get through it (except that most of the help comes from the mysterious, hot, new guy in school).
Carter Hill is that hot new guy in school: instantaneously popular, always charismatic, and a player (but at heart, he's actually sweet, gentle and suffering from negative, unseen forces that he wishes to keep confined to the furthest corners of his struggling mind).
Join this duo on their journey, figuring things out together and helping each other along the way.
"Why do you care if I kiss other girls? We're not together, we're friends" he stated swallowing his emotions.
"You're right, why should I care? Like you said we're friends" I got more angry with each word that came out of my mouth. "You know what? Go makeout with any girl you want, I don't care" I said as I started to walk away. I felt his hand grip my wrist and pull me back against the lockers. His hands cupped my face and the next thing I know his lips were smashed up against mine.
