Everlyn Rose Carter is a typical senior in Henlin High School, just trying to make it to graduation. She counts the days until it gets here, until she can get away from her broken home, away from all the familiar faces, and especially away from the stupid town she's lived in her whole life. 

But it won't be so simple. 

Trial and error will one day lead you to the right person, they say. But when life only gives you errors, how do you find your way?

"I need you to be the put together one because I'm so fucked up. You've saved me." He whispers. "Carter, we saved each other." I mutter looking at him through my eyelashes. I lean into him, our lips not even an inch apart. "Sophia we shouldn't..." He looks hesitant. "Please, I need you." I almost started crying. "Please." I mutter one more time, my eyes begging for him.

Chasing What Could Be

24 parts Complete

Jake has always loved Amy, his best friend and confidante, but the more their lives intertwine, the more distant she seems. Set against the backdrop of college life, Jake silently yearns for more as Amy pursues her own ambitions, unaware of his hidden feelings. Together, they face academic pressures, future uncertainties, and the highs and lows of growing up, but Jake is haunted by the reality that some love remains just out of reach. As graduation approaches and their paths diverge, Jake must come to terms with the complexities of unrequited love. In this heartfelt exploration of friendship, longing, and self-discovery, Jake learns that true love sometimes means letting go-and that the greatest acts of love may come from the distance that life inevitably creates.
