Flying High
What happens when untold feelings are told when it's too late? What will happen if a person ignores their friend and leaves after they poured their heart out to them? This is the story of Dylan O'Brien and Caroline Abernathy. A story which begins from now and then it goes back it time explaining how they slowly fell for each other, it will be described in both of their points of view( Mostly Caroline's thought since Dylan is an actual person and I don't know how he thinks). I'm going to try and be realistic with this story like using a few facts based on my knowledge of things. I know this sound like a classic story where they get married and have kids but it's not how I'm planning it. I don't own anything besides the text so please you can copy anything you want but not the text. Thank you! =]Complete
