15 parts Complete MatureA story of a runaway heartbeat and the found family it dragged along.
They move from place to place-half-lost, half-chosen-chasing quiet, hiding from the noise. It started with one girl trying to outrun the truth her family fed her, and grew into a mismatched group of escapees: her best friend, a boyfriend, two internet ghosts, and later, the ones who took the place of those who left.
But people don't always stay.
Sometimes they leave with a note.
Sometimes they don't say anything at all.
And sometimes... they come back.
What happens when someone you loved left you for what they thought was your good-only to return when the damage's been done? What happens when grief makes room for someone new? And how do you know when the road you're running is finally home?
