Our lives can change so quickly without us realizing how much we have been corrupted and lied to. In this story, Alana finds out the hard way that high school, let alone life, is not always good to you

-------------------------

In 6th grade, I promised myself I would never drink, become a "bad child", or even date in high school so I could focus on school and be successful in life. Well here I am in 11th grade, and that promise is completely broken.

She'd always thought he was rude, but after that night he's all Ella can think about. Now she's trapped. If Ella dates Ren, it will ruin her friendship with Jenny. But if she stays true to Jenny, she's losing the one person who can see past her scars. It's up to Ella to decide if she will forge her own path, or stay in the "perfect" box designed for her...
