Alexis (Lexi) Lowther defined herself as goth. Maybe it was because she felt like she was drifting from clique to clique, never seeming to find her place. Maybe it was because she felt no connection to her parents. When they springs the idea of moving to London Lexi isn't particularly bothered. A fresh start could be exactly what she needs.
Skye Rivera has always felt like he was drowning in thoughts, the idea that he doesn't deserve to be loved plaguing his mind. When Skye encounters Lexi, he sees the sadness behind Lexi's eyes because it reflects the sadness behind his own. He feels obligated to befriend Lexi, but the baggage of his dark past can only hinder their relationship. He swears he won't fall in love, but Lexi sees falling in love with Skye as inevitable.
