Everlong

TRIGGER WARNING // mentions of physical/emotional abuse and other dark topics, as well as mature scenes and references.

This book will be written in two POVs. Each chapter will be in either Charlie or Ellie's POV, and consequently will be written by either one of us.

Charlie and Ellie have been best friends since before Ellie's brother was arrested. They've sorted through Charlie's bisexual mess of a love life, Ellie's need to paint a life model, and their feelings for the two boys that returned to their lives. Thrown into the deep end of infatuation, the girls need to decide if they're willing to take the leap into a romantic relationship, or content to sit and daydream from afar.

Jack was removed from his sister's life at fifteen by assault charges and biased cops. He returned almost a year later, with best friend, Miles in tow. Both boys are trying to move on from the harsh time they met in, but are blindsided as they spend more time with Ellie and Charlie. A helping hand becomes a vow of protection, and quiet moments caught between their lives become letting down walls and being vulnerable.

How will these new relationships navigate their bruised lives? Are they strong enough to survive the tremors that rock them?

Or will they shatter on the floor like a forgotten photo?
