And then she smiles, like it actually is the most simple thing in the world. • • • Every night he goes up to watch the city lights from the hood of his car. Every night he wonders about the stars. Every night he is alone. Until one night, he isn't. He's grown up here his entire life. He knows everyone and everyone knows him. But he's always wondered what it would be like if for one day, life were. . . Better. She just moved here. She has only her sister for a friend and knows no one. Until that is, when she came stumbling across the best thing this town has to offer-a great city view. • • • I DO NOT OWN THE PHOTO ON THE COVER!

I fell for a boy with the kindest blue eyes, and a charming dimple. He made me feel loved, and cared for, and most importantly he made me feel safe in his presence. He came right in the middle of a tornadoe and managed to turn it into blue skies. He changed my perspective and gave me hope and strength." I looked at him, and he was smiling, and his eyes were a little glossy. He took my hand and kissed it, a small tear caught in the corner of his beautiful eyes. "I thought, hey, maybe life isn't so bad after all. Maybe I can finally allow myself to love and be loved, and to live life normally. When we went to your party, you told me to wait for you. But then your perverted cousin made me feel super uncomfortable, so I went looking for you, just to be able to feel at peace again. And that's when I saw it." My heart beats skyrocketed, because this was the moment everything changed forever. "Saw what?" Asked Axel. I took a deep breath, and continued. It's now or never. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Sophia Grace is a 25 year old Forensic Science major who recently started working as a cashier at her local grocery store - "The Corner Store".
