After Skye's life-changing events in 2019 pass through, a new school year begins. Amazingly, she has transferred to the school all her new friends go to, but the questions of if this 'family' is willing to stay together linger in her head. And her biggest concern is how they would react to the truth about her family heritage-- her brother, Brian Crandall, someone who had caused multiple severe problems toward their group and to many others.

To Skye, it's only a matter of time that all her new friends would abandon her. She feels she would be dragging everyone down because of her parents' deception and abuse and, the amount of trouble and conflict her brother has caused

Unbeknownst to Skye, her friends--this family she has will continuously grow and support her, wanting badly for her to accept them to her fullest potential. 

Above all, they want to liberate her from the chains the Crandall family uses to drag her down.

A family will do anything to protect one of their own, and these friends will stop at nothing to make this possible for their dear friend.



'Tangent Points - Points on a line that cross paths once, then never meet again.' 

Dysfunctional individually in their own ways, they somehow are functional as a group, you'll never see one without the other, and the other, and so on and so forth. They're essentially a family who need each other. 

Like all people, they all make mistakes, and sometimes never agree with their family, but at the same time, they learn and begin to appreciate the lessons that come with the mistakes. 

Many, many pieces will become vital to this family. To them, life was like a rollercoaster ride. Just as long as they had people riding with them, they knew they would be okay. However, some of them start to wonder whether or not this bond will last forever. There is no such thing as forever; the days are numbered for a reason.

When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness.

BIG CHANGES AND EDITING TAKING PLACE - BEAR WITH ME SOME THINGS MIGHT CHANGE This is a FAN FICTION if you do not want to read the fiction version is on my profile The greater the power, the more dangerous the abuse. They say that when you fall ill, you can't imagine how it had felt to be fit and healthy again. The memories disappear and all that you are left with is the pain and the feelings of being helpless, like your life is merely just hanging on the edge of a thread. If you compare it, I felt like that after the year of abuse I had endured, I couldn't remember how it felt not to be hit and shoved around. I couldn't remember how if had felt to not be covered in bruises or to have scrapes and cuts that sting. I was frightened every second of every single day. I feared what I would have to say, each word would be like gasoline to the fire that would inevitably explode sooner rather than later. At first, I loved him, I would gladly jump in front of a bus for him, but when the love-struck puppy disappeared and my vision was no longer clouded by sweet gestures and expensive gifts, I saw him for who he truly was. A cold, heartless man that thrived off the hurt and anguish of others, and when I finally discovered who the person I fell in love was, it was too late to leave. Skye Talbot was nothing near a normal girl. Her 'boyfriend' was part of the town's most dangerous and feared gangs. She didn't know how she got dragged into the lifestyle of drugs, sex and crazy fights, but she was starting to get used to it. Little did she know it was soon to all change. A mysterious group of five boys come to the school and turn it upside down. Turning them into the ones others should fear. When one of them takes an interest in her, all hell breaks loose between the two gangs. Who will she choose? Whose lives would be risked in the process?
