A typical true love begins with a typical beginning.
Eighteen year old, Layla, is just a shy, to herself kind of girl. She pops into drama now and then, but mostly, balances on the sidelines. She has her straight A's, she has her books. She has her Fairy tales, she has her fiction. But what she doesn't have, is the knowledge of true love. As summer hits, she's all about books. Her favorite store-a book store-is her hobby. She could even call it a tradition. Knowing the book store-people, popular books and boring ones-she found it strange as there was a new member on the staff. A young boy, her age, Toni. As she visits the store every day, she found a slight bond between the both of them. Little does she know, Toni already had his crushes on the young, shy Layla. As the book store is threatened to be closed, the store has a large sale, causing the place to grow with a ton of business. Layla doesn't show up evermore because of the sales and the popularity, causing Toni to only fall for other girls. But; before Layla knows it, she returns to find herself jealous, pissed and torn.

He had his arms crossed over his chest, a gesture that could possibly get him knocked out in this place. He looked as though he could fake a tough guy but at heart he was gentle. I had good instincts and they were screaming to steer clear of this guy. Why? Because he would break my heart.
