Welcome to the world of Elites, where the streets are paved with gold and the children of the affluent reign supreme. In this realm of opulence, money talks, and the outside world's questions are mere whispers in the wind.
It's here that we meet Andrew, aka 'Drew,' the charming, self-assured playboy with a smile that could disarm the gods. And then, there's Maya, the bold, straightforward, and confident tomboy who's not afraid to speak her mind.
Their first encounter is nothing short of explosive. Maya's struck by Drew's chiseled features, but her admiration is short-lived, thanks to his haughty remark, "Whatcha looking at, snotty?" Drew, on the other hand, thinks Maya's the most stunning girl he's ever laid eyes on... until she shuts him down with a sharp, "Whatcha looking at, pervert?"
Join Drew and Maya on their wild ride as they navigate adulthood's complexities, stumble upon unexpected love, and face the challenges that come with it. Buckle up, folks! It's about to get real.

"That's not what I meant..." I chew on my lip.
"Well, what the fuck did you mean then?" He shouts.
"When I'm there I don't have to think about you!" I yell back. Wrong choice of words again, Sophia. I curse myself.
His form immediately stands and he strides over to me, he is now inches away from me, his body is so close to mine that I am forced to take a couple of steps backwards. My back is pressed up against the window. Noah's breathing is deep but he speaks softly, "when you're there all I can think about is you." He raises his hand and tucks a strand of hair behind my ear.
I step around him and head for the door, "uh I'm going to go to the hospital." I pick up my bag and rush out of the door leaving Noah in the room and saving myself from doing something I would definitely regret and make me change my mind about going back to Pennsylvania.
