Runners
They balance each-other out. One the calm, the other the storm. Except when they don't. Except when she loses it and makes the place burn...literally. Who knew a burnt building would lead to three lost brothers across the country and a big ass house...after being on the run for almost a year. The twins are in for a crazy ride, but they're in it together. Always. Pinky promise. Will it be enough? TW: abuse, SA, r*pe, and mature language/scenes.

Soulmates by Summer
Andi: When I get assaulted with hot coffee after an already awful day, I don't count on leaving the encounter with a hot new fake boyfriend. Who just happens to be the infamous Silas Livingstone. Hockey star. My big brother's teammate. Incredibly infuriating and annoyingly handsome. However, the bigger shock is that Silas wants to make a deal-if he can get me to fall in love with him by June, then I go out with him for real. Because I'm never one to back down from a challenge, I agree. Besides, there's no way I'm losing this bet. Summer is less than two months away and life isn't a romcom. I mean, it's not as if it's possible to become soulmates by summer... right? Silas- I've got two months to prove to the girl of my dreams that we're meant to be. Though I don't doubt that she'll eventually come around, problem is, I don't know if I can wait that long to call her mine. Andi is the most stubborn, kindhearted, funniest person I've ever met-and she might just deny what I know she feels for me just to win this stupid bet. But I've never been one to back down from a challenge or to give up what I love. Summer is less than 2 months away. 2 months to show Andi just how much I love her, before I could lose her forever. Life may not be one of those romcoms she loves, but I do believe that there are soulmates-and I've finally found mine. There's no way I'm letting her go come summer.

My eyes widen and I look into her eyes again. A blush makes a way to her face and I can tell she didn't mean to say that last part out loud. But she did. And I can't stop myself from taking what she said to heart. It's been a long time since anyone has said anything remotely close to that to me. I can't let it get to me. I can't get used to it. Being hopeful. The higher you rise, the farther you fall. "Do you think you could make a song I can sing to?" She asks me timidly. I hesitate to say no. If I say no then she might spiral again. This is her hope. Her light to the darkness. She finally has something to look forward to and to distract her. As I mull over it I see the hope in her eyes dwindle. She doesn't expect me to say yes. "Okay," I whisper.Complete
