Oceane Avery Emerson has no recollection of her past. Who she was friends with, what she did, nothing. She had one goal, which was to remember her past.That was until a boy with grey eyes tampered her only motive. He threw her world upside down and made her discover new things. He made her understand that what happened in the past isn't important. She helped him heal from the scars he had because he couldn't move on from his past.
But little did they know, there was much more to their story.
***
The girl and boy both wished.
'I want to know more about myself.'
'I want to be more like myself.'
Right at the moment they wished, a shooting star glided across the sky, unbeknownst to them.
'Everything has a right time.' Their right time started just by a mere coincidence on the edge of a cliff.

And in that moment, I realized something that I've always known deep down in my heart. I finally understand why my eyes would always cling to him in a room, why my mood would always lighten up whenever he was around, why my world brightened up when I met him- why the sun shined brighter, trees and grass were greener, flowers smelled better. Why he makes my world more beautiful simply by existing in it. It's because I'm in love with him. The type of love that you never knew existed until you finally experience it yourself, the type of love that's hard to put into words because it's a love you've never had for anyone else. And never will. - JAMISON MACK ... And in which, Jamison Mack drunkly kisses his very much in love bestfriend, Hayden Zhang. Shouldn't be much of a problem, they both agree to forget about it.

I'm In Love With Me?
Why was there a boy in my room? There was a boy in my room! "Shoo, shoo." I whacked him with the umbrella as he backed up next to the window. All I did was make a wish. Just a few words I called a sentence and a few sentences I called a paragraph. How was I supposed to know that it would turn out like this. What even was this? I was him. He was me. We were...we? "How can I be you!" I shouted in panic. This wasn't making sense. He? Me? We're...us? "Because I'm you." He answered calmly and my mouth dropped open. Wait, what? "How can you be me and I, you?" I bellowed, confused. This was way too much for the little brain cells I had left. "You're a boy!" "Okay, now that's just being sexist." He stated, leaning against my book case with a grin on his face. What the hell was going on!? ************************** Lenna Adams was living no easy life. Her once perfect family was now in ruins.
