Koen and Birdie were your true cliché of high school couples; however, nobody knew what happened behind closed doors. A perfect exterior for two that were sticking around for the good parts. Addiction is hard, moving forward is even harder...

Koen Michael was your average high school outcast and bad boy. He stuck around a small group of boys with a similar persona. His upbringing was hard - raised by his grandparents, his parents riddled with addiction and jail history. Koen believes that success, family, and friends is not in the cards for him. He battles the choice of leading his life similar to his exposure or lead a life completely away from what was taught to him. 

Birdie Robertson moved from a specialized school to public schools to gain experience of new friendships, exposure to different high school experiences, and at the chance of new opportunities of learning. A down to earth sweet-heart that sees the best in people will soon be vulnerable to Koen Michael.

This story of two people from two different worlds will learn the life of an addict and a person who loves an addict.

Kai and Ryu's lives were never meant to intertwine in the way they did. In a world where silence often speaks louder than words, their connection grew in the quiet spaces between their conversations-moments of vulnerability, shared smiles, and a bond that felt too strong to ignore. Kai, with his open heart and determination, has always been comfortable with who he is. But when it comes to Ryu, the boy who hides his heart behind walls of doubt, Kai finds himself questioning everything he thought he knew about love and trust. Ryu has always kept his emotions locked away, scared of the vulnerability that comes with giving himself fully to someone. Haunted by fear and insecurity, he finds in Kai a source of solace-and also his greatest fear. Can he really open up? Can he truly allow someone to love him, just as he is? As they navigate the challenges of high school, societal expectations, and their own hearts, Kai and Ryu learn that love is not just about finding the perfect person-it's about accepting each other's imperfections, growing together, and trusting that no matter how hard things get, they are stronger side by side. With every quiet touch, every tear shed, and every shared moment of understanding, they realize that love isn't something you just feel-it's something you choose, again and again. But the question remains: Can they overcome their own fears and take that leap together into the unknown future? A story about love, fear, and finding yourself in someone else's heart. A journey of discovering that the most beautiful things in life are often the ones we can't see, but feel deeply. If you believe love can be as tender as it is fierce, join Kai and Ryu as they learn to embrace the love they never saw coming.

She looks up at me, taking a step forward and smiling slightly, "How can I ever get hurt when I have you here to protect me?" "But you could have gotten hurt," I murmur softly, hanging my head and feeling my shoulders drop, the tension seeping from my body. "No. Stop," She cuts me off sternly but tenderly, "Don't talk like that, Reece. I'm okay, you're okay, we're okay," She speaks softly, reaching her hand up to gently brush her thumb over my cheek, just under the cut that's there. "We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart. I know she can feel how fast my heart is beating. I just don't know why it's doing that. ~ Reece Carter is the bad boy of Northwood High. He smokes and he fights. He has countless tattoos covering his body. And he doesn't care about anything or anyone else.

Kacey is a quiet, hurt girl, who is also gay. Students at school are cruel and they don't spare her the ugly names and mental as well as physical abuse, which she inflicts upon herself when she cannot stand the pain. But thank god, she's got Elliott, her protector, her only hope to live, her best friend. She only sees him as that, when he has fallen head over heels for her in the 5 year period that they've been best friends. Even though he has saved her from the darkest depths and moments in her life, and has protected her from bullies, she feels nothing more for him, than great appreciation, gratitude, gratefulness and of course friend-like love. She is not physically attracted to him and never has been. But what happens when things take a turn for the worse? Kacey ends up in a dangerous situation she might not be able to get out of. Love isn't just attraction, physical chemistry, or some talk on the same wave length that makes you think you are destined for each other. It is a bond, you share and grow with. Follow Kacey and Elliot on their journey full of ups and downs.
