Still holding onto my hand, he cast his gaze to the black android watch around his wrist. 

"Right," he drawled. "Now. 3:30pm on the dot."

The day things went from bad to worse for Cleo Petrakovski was the day her mom walked out the door and out her family's lives. For good. Cleo and her brother, Dante, after years of abuse at the hands of their father, vowed to find a way out. For Cleo, that meant college. The farthest one from home. She could get a loan, scholarship, whatever. Whatever it took to get her out of there.

But the world comes to a standstill the moment Dante dies. With her failing grades going even more downhill and barely pulling through to senior year, Cleo puts herself in a situation where she has to find a tutor before her first week runs out. One that'll guide her through her finals if she's ever going to graduate.

What she doesn't expect though, is a deal with Brent, "the pest", Lockwood. A deal in which he'd be her tutor in exchange for . . . her.

Will Cleo be able to scale through the stress of senior year stuck between school work, an unlikely deal and mutual feelings for her ex?

He rubbed the back of his head that possessed his starter loc twists. "That was so nice of you, you didn't have too." She smiled softly finally looking at him, "Can you put it on me?" He stood behind her and she moved her hair out of the way as he put it around her neck and clipped it back together. Her hand immediately went to it. "I'm never gone take it off."

Growing up in a toxic environment, sixteen-year-old Jay Foster has always had psychological problems, coupled with a quick temper. But one night something happens which finally pushes him over the edge, and as a result, he leaves his house the next morning with two things: his mother's gun and a plan. Living with a neglectful and drug addicted mother wasn't easy for Jay, and it definitely didn't help that his father abandoned the family while he was still a child. He harbored a hatred toward his parents, and that hatred extended to almost everyone and everything around him, producing a very troubled and damaged young kid. As Jay enters high school, he becomes very intrigued with one of his classmates. Kind of obsessed, actually. Her name: Mikayla Keeler. Mikayla is very unique, and like Jay, she doesn't seem to fit in with her contemporaries. Instead, the two of them keep each other company, and their friendship very quickly escalates into a romantic and intimate relationship. Despite having Mikayla, Jay's troubles continue to burden him. He and Mikayla are fighting habitually, his home life is still unbearable, and his time at school is hardly any better, made worse by a bully named Calvin. Their mutual dislike of one another leads to a lot of hostility, routinely leading to Jay being sent to his school's principal. One confrontation in particular goes much too far, resulting in Jay's expulsion from school. With everything seemingly piling up, Jay is very close to his breaking point, and late one night he is blindsided by the unthinkable, pushing him much too far and effectively planting in his mind a cruel and horrific plan for revenge.
