*I stared out the window at the street below and watched the cars go by. I had been sitting here for an hour and a half. I sat here after I finished unpacking, not wanting to accept that I was living here. I loved my dad and all, but this was the last place I wanted to be. I hadn’t been here since I last came with my best friend. Bad memories had ruined the beach for me. And I wasn’t ready to revisit them.*
Harley and her friend had been going to the beach every summer for as long as she could remember. This was the first summer she had come there without here. She is forced to face the painful memories of her previous summers there. She meets someone who has a secret, someone who plays a role in her past. A person she only met once. And once she knows the secret, things start to make some sense.
I am alternating chapters. Every other chapter is the past. The past are the summers that Harley spent with her best friend.

Love with strings detached
I put on a show only for him in front of hundreds of people. I bring one hand up to my hair flicking them to the other side, trailing that hand down to my sternum and then my boob as I keep swaying my hips from to side, bending my knees as I lower myself a bit to the ground before sharply standing up again and slowly spinning around, circling my hips. I run my hands through the back of my hair before nailing my gaze on his eyes, slowly walking up to him. I watch him as he wets his lips before biting his plumb bottom one, eyes trailing up my body. Once I reach him, I wrap my arms around his neck and run my fingers through his hair as I press my body up against his. His hands shoot out to grab me from my lower waist, pulling me even closer to him as he pushes a leg between mine, staring into my eyes. I turn my head to the side and brush my lips against his ear before licking and biting his earlobe the same way I did at the party before whispering a few words he was dying to hear. "Take me back to your place." ---------- Theo is a 20-year-old university student with a bad temper. Letting go of the past can be a difficult thing to do but a much-needed one to move on.
