Falling in love is easy. With a few fantasies and a few meetups, you may be head over heels for anybody.

Falling out of love is what no one talks about. They don't talk about the nights they stay up thinking about the "what if's", they don't talk about crying until they literally run out of tears, they don't talk about how depressed they are without them in their lives.

Everyone one sees the beauty of love but no one sees when it gets ugly, when you literally can't function without them, when even death passes through your mind.

So all you can do is hope that it doesn't kill you. Hope that you will survive it. That when no one is there to save you, you have to put on your best brave face, hoping and believing that you will make it out alive.

When Isabella Williams enters senior year by herself, she thought that it would be like the last three years; alone and miserable.

Then comes Smith Brown, the most brooding, I-hate-the-world self, that doesn't let anyone come at least 10 feet close. Literally.

When Isabella gets curious and tries to get close to him, all he does is shut her out, not letting anyone in.

How many times will Isabella let her heart get broken? Will he let her in? Or will she die trying?
