A New Beginning

Eva Mendez ( ay-va) left her home as soon as she turned eighteen to escape her demons. Now, three years later after having shared an apartment with her best friend Ellie (el-ee), they decide to move to Vancouver to start University and get away from everything.

Kyle C. Rae was quiet. After moving away at the young age of sixteen, from his abusive and alcoholic father with his brother Desmond, they find a new life in Vancouver. Kyle, now 22 and Desmond 20, run their very own little bakery.

What will happen when these young adults meet and realize they have more in common than they think? Join these four in their journey while they heal each other, make memories, life-long friends... and maybe even more.

Who knows, we may even find out the middle names of the Rae brothers?

My breath hitched as he was pushed closer to me.

This elevator really needs a set capacity.

The sides of his forearms were beside my head, caging me in with his body only a few centimetres away from mine.

Feeling awkward I look down at my feet, as I did my head rested on Kyle's chest. I felt my cheeks burn as I didn't mean for this to be so intimate. As I decide to further push myself into the corner of the elevator, I stop as I feel Kyle's heartbeat.

He's affected by our close proximity as well?

My face goes crimson as I quietly mumble an apology, more to myself for slightly enjoying the moment.

Kyle clears his throat and inches a bit closer to me. I feel his upper body ever so slightly inch down and I feel his warm breath tickle my ear.

"You don't have to apologize," he says with a light chuckle.

I slowly nod, my head still against his hard chest. I close my eyes waiting to reach our floor as I desperately tried to push away the butterflies I felt.

Why was this elevator taking so damn long?
