Stephen Curry. A 18 year old bad boy. From a young age he always embraced his rebellious side. Got into fights, bullied, shouted at teachers. You name it. He'd always been involved with drugs, a boy he used to know got him involved with several gangs. And from then on he has never separated from them. He wasn't addicted but he didn't stop. He'd rarely take them, but he would supply them. Basketball was his passion, his drive. And one day will be the thing that saves him.


Now for Ayesha. She is a 18 year old girl. Not necessarily a good girl but she wasn't going round running her mouth at everyone. She was shy yes, but she didn't let anyone diss her. From the age of 14 she was diagnosed with cancer. But she's a fighter. Soon she will be able to say she is a survivor of Cancer. Not a victim. She was beautiful, strong, independent. Who wouldn't love her.

Stephen that's who.


Her and Stephen's relationship was....  complicated to say the least. His parents had given her a job to do at the age of 10. To keep Stephen out of trouble, and to report back to them if anything happened. So that's what she did. Every time he got in a fight she'd tell his parents. He knew this and quickly a hatred grew between them. Soon she'd be the one stopping the fights instead of telling his parents. Now and then she'd fill them in but never go into detail. When he got into drugs, she'd look over him like a hawk. But she understood him better than anyone. And he understood her. 

Yet still they hate each other.  With a passion.

Now follow these two 18 year olds on their journey to overcome their past and focus on their future. Together?

Bad part about that? It's got 2 rooms. Me and Hunter have to share. At first I hate it. But then over the weeks, I begin to see how broken Hunter Storm really is. He's not just a dick, he's scared. And I'm slowly starting to comfort him through his troubles. We're getting somewhere, but then the worst possible thing happens. But strangley, it's bringing us closer.

CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.
