"You know, there are two reasons why people don't talk about things; either it means nothing to them or it means everything."

           It's a year after Connor Mathews committed suicide, leaving his best friend Danielle lost and confused. The two shared everything since they were kids, so where were the signs? Why did Connor believe the world would be better off without him?

           Danielle is familiar with loss, but this news hits her like a bullet. Connor and Danielle were partners in crime. But with Connor gone, Danielle is just a lonely outsider with a slight temper and a high probability to self-destruct.

           After a few unlikely encounters that create a few unlikely friendships, Danielle begins to wonder if maybe not all surprises are bad. But without the answers she needs to erase the ambiguity surrounding Connor's death, how will she maintain a healthy life? Is it possible to live happily even in the face of everlasting unanswerable questions?

WARNING: this story contains talk about depression and suicide. If you have triggers regarding those two, please read with caution. Also if any of you ever need to talk, you are always free to message me! You are never alone. --- Sixteen-year-old Skylynn was the type of girl who didn't fit in with many people. She wasn't quite popular, but she wasn't considered an outcast. She had two main friends: Cassandra and Marcus. So, when her best friend, Cassandra, asked her to come to the park with her to meet some boys, she didn't think anything of it to find love. She just went with it and had a fun time with her friend Cassandra. But when Cassandra's boyfriend comes with a boy named Adam, Skylynn's world is turned around. She instantly feels the butterflies and the steamy romance with this boy, but she doesn't let it show. She doesn't want love right now. All she wants to worry about is school and her friends and family. But after that night that they all hung out together, Skylynn and Adam got closer and closer as time flew by. One date suddenly turned into three dates. Then, they both fell in love with one another. And then one day Adam commits suicide. She doesn't know why he did so, nor why he would. Even though she was heart-broken and torn to pieces, she puts up this facade and acts strong. She acts like none of it bothers her and she goes on with her life. But even after she goes from good girl to bad, she misses Adam like crazy. How long will Skylynn be able to hold this bad girl image of herself before she finally breaks down? This heart-wrenching story will teach you what it feels like to lose someone that you thought you would spend forever with.

There were no people eating in restaurants. There were no sounds except my heavy breathing and the howling wind. "HELLOOOOOOOO" I shouted, "IS ANYONE HEREEEEE HELLOOOOO!!?"
