I started this over three years ago. It was inspired by a guy I saw on America's Got Talent who had overcome drug addiction. He had previously had a rough relationship with his father, and music brought them back together.
Music has played a huge role in my life, growing up in a family that had its own band (my grandfather played drums, my mom sang and played bass piano, and eventually I'd have the honor of singing and playing clarinet). But I also know a thing or two about dysfunctional relationships. As someone who has lost multiple family members to addiction, it's also something for which I'm all too familiar.
So, this is going to eventually be a completed novel. I have no idea how long it will take to finish, but I'm going to try. And when I get a synopsis ready, I'll add it here.
But for now, all you need to know is it's about wanting something, almost having it, but being just a halftone apart from getting it.
This is the story of Wes and Kennedy. I hope you'll vote, comment, and share it with your friends.

"Curiosity killed the kitty Miss Adams."
My body stiffened. Slowly I turned around just to see Mr. Parker standing in front of me with hands in his trouser pockets. I bit my lip. I thought he would be angry but when I looked at him. His face showed no emotion. He then started walking towards me I moved back. This continued until my back hit the door. Then he placed his one hand on my side, leaning forward, close to me.
"What was rule number three Miss Adams." His face was extremely close to mine my breath got hitched. I couldn't answer his question why? Because I was more focused in the distance between us.
"I asked you something Miss Adams." He said again.
"T-That t-there a-are prohibited areas i-in the house where I shouldn't g-go."
"It seems like you remember the rules. This room is one of those prohibited areas. So, from next time think before you put yourself into trouble."
I just stared at his eyes. I was lost in those pair of sea-coloured eyes. No other guy has ever affected me this much as Mr. Parker. I get nervous around him. I don't know what this feeling is but this feeling is different. A feeling that I have never felt for anyone.
"Understood?" he said again.
I nodded. "Yes Mr. Parker."
