Alexander West and Emily Waterhouse were once inseparable. They were the best of friends. Through thick and thin, they'd stick together, they said.
Fast forward 4 years later, and no one, except the few people that were around during their middle school days, even knew the friendship Emily cherished so dearly ever existed.
Alexander West, the sweet boy she adored and loved, and who adored and loved her, had turned his back on her and started hanging with the bad boys crowd.
Some called it a summer fling, some called it a fleeting romance, but to Emily, despite having been short-lived, the friendship they had was so much more than that.
He was her rock.
The only guy she had let into her life and felt 100% comfortable with.
Until everything came crashing down on her and left her under a pile of rubble.
But even after 4 years, Em still can't let go.
Is she the only one that had stayed in the past? Or had the boy she shared that past with never left in the first place?

I'm also sharing for my beta readers who have been patiently awaiting an update and were desperate to read the next chapter despite it not being anywhere near submission worthy.

Chasing Charming ✔️
Complete! "You know I really like you, right?" He was definitely drunk. "You do?" I asked. My voice was supposed to be teasing, but I think it came off as a bit startled. He laughed, "Yeah, why else would I trust you with all my secrets?" -- Betty was many things; a romantic, a fashion designer, a bit more jealous than the average girl, great with a camera, a helpful daughter and a good friend. But she was best known for being nice. And usually, the boy did not want the 'nice' girl. But this summer she was going to prove to Mike, her crush since FOREVER, that nice was enough. She was going to have an amazing summer, a perfect Junior year, and finally have her first kiss. It was a foolproof plan. Moving from her childhood home in Arizona to New Mexico at the start of Junior year was never a part of Betty's plan. But sometimes when parents are involved, plans change. So now the nice girl had to start over at a new school in a new State. And when the (maybe not so bad) bad boy, Eli, gets involved, it might be hard to be known as 'the nice girl'.Complete
