One heartbeat at a time

“Dude” I looked at Carter with exhilaration pumping through my veins.

“Dude” he responded equally thrilled

“We’re seniors.” I squeaked out

I turned to look at Grande Ridge High school, this was where all my moments of being a
goofball and an immature schoolgirl resided. This was the school I have been
going too for 3 years with memories packed to the sky with ones never to be
forgotten. It hit me when I realized how fast we were growing up.

One more year to go and I’ll be in college

My stomach tightened with anticipation with that thought and I tightened my death grip around my backpack strap

“Finally…” he murmured and took a step forward

Little did I know that was a step closer to meeting heart breaker, my ones
promised and revealing my traitor

Aria Ferne is a 17 year old girl who just entered senior year, the year of being a
semi-adult. Her best friend, Carter Morris, is right by her side. They are like
peas and a pod, they do everything together. But here’s the catch, Carter likes
Aria. He’s liked her ever since Aria promised to be with him forever when
they were kids.

But the inseparable pair is about to change when Aria meets one shy,
quiet boy who sits next to her in one of her classes.
His name is one Aria and Carter will never forget.
His name is Lucas Berrie.
