Justin had to move on with his elder brother to Green Bay after the horrific death of his parents. He was supposed to proceed with his life, but he believed that he was cursed by hurting all of the people close to him, and because he believed his own thoughts and gave in to them, his survival strategy in the senior high school year involved plugging in the headphone all the time and to cut the people off. This was him until he met Emma at a party.
Emma was a bubbly popular cheerleader that everyone envied her life, however, there was well-hidden pain under her mask. Her sudden breakup with Luke who she thought will be her everlasting melody and the challenges to achieving her dreams made her mask gets blown and
"Each morning I wake up I die a little - Queen" To grow to be her favorite lyric.
Perhaps the party was a reason for shattering her heart more as she realized that Luke already moved on, but it was the starting point of her friendship with Justin.
Will they heal each other's pain and change each other's worlds to move on?

His Sweet Lies
Her brows furrowed. "You look like you have something specific you wanna ask me." The tips of Liam's ears turned red at Emma's very accurate observation. "I, uh... I usually just bullshit my way through projects, so I have no idea what the hell I'm doing." The corners of Emma's lips formed a small smile. Liam arched his brow. "What are you smiling at?" Her smile widened. "Nothing." Ever since Emma started going to Silver Creek High, she's been bullied over her discolored eyes. It all started when a boy brought attention to her in biology class one day, laughing at her and calling her a "freak" while the rest of the class laughed along with him.

It Wasn't Love ✔️
"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach.

My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape.
