"The sea gives and the sea takes"
that's all orphaned teen Kaia allowed herself to accept. As a young socially awkward girl trying to find her place within her clan she has given up all hope trying to connect with others and instead does her best to take on whatever jobs she can to prove herself. But when a certain cerulean colored boy and his family move in, her plans seemed to be thrown out the window.
Bought together by an unexpected event, Kaia finds herself questioning her "hatred" and this boy's actions. Eventually, she comes to the startling conclusion that Neteyam might be the one to help her face her demons head on...but as what?
Strangers, Allies, Lovers, Rivals or Enemies. What will they become? Better said, will they manage to stay together through an earth shattering event?

She saw his gaze falter from her eyes for just a second and fall on her lips. She bit her bottom lip, as she felt her cheeks heat up. Was he going to...kiss her? Would she want him to? Her heart was beating so fast, she was sure it was going to burst.
