Candice Clark

The best thing about her is the way she smiles. The way her lips look like soft, pink rose petals; the way the sun shines down on her chocolate brown hair, making it glimmer and shine. Her mossy colored eyes, deep and mysterious.
Her name was Candice Clark.
She was always known as Candy, a sweet, soft spoken girl that had a mysterious, adventurous, amazing side to her when you pulled it out. She read books of facts for fun and had a secret love for rhyming. She was a wallflower, a forgotten girl, a nerd. She was the one that single handily changed my life without even realizing it. She's the one that I could never forget.
Meet Adrian Davis, the hot shot basketball player who really doesn't know if he wants to devote his life to the ball. His home life is private, no one ever gets past his walls, and he considers himself not the stereotypical jock.
Meet Candice Clark, a nerdy brunette who loves big books and adventure when you pull it out of her. Her mom goes through guys like toilet paper, blames her for practically everything that goes wrong, and she feels like a forgotten person in her own home.
Two different people, very different people, who both have a home and a life that they wish they didn't. So when they start talking their senior year, both of them could have never realized how much their simple friendship was going to change them, and how much just having each other would mean to both of them.
A simple love story that Adrian figured would never happen for him in a million years, and that Candice could have never imagined.
