"Breathe, baby, you're okay." 

My head jerked backwards, hitting the wall, and I screamed in pain and frustration.

"Why was I cursed like this?"

16 year-old Alexandria Colbin had a good life, for the most part. 

Two parents who love each other (but still fight every once in a while).

An older sister and two younger brothers.

An amazing best friend.

A school she loved.

But she also had a medical condition called Tourettes Syndrome. And, of course, her TS caused narcolepsy as well. 

So as she's going through life, she tries to stay as normal as she can. It's not easy though.

In fact, it's impossible.

17 year old Erik Carter had a less ideal life.

Absent parents.

Failing grades.

Bad mental health.

Three siblings to take care of.

A needy girlfriend.

How could he deal with all of this? He couldn't. Not without help.

Good thing Alexandria is pretty great at helping.

"I need you to be the put together one because I'm so fucked up. You've saved me." He whispers. "Carter, we saved each other." I mutter looking at him through my eyelashes. I lean into him, our lips not even an inch apart. "Sophia we shouldn't..." He looks hesitant. "Please, I need you." I almost started crying. "Please." I mutter one more time, my eyes begging for him. My body needing him. Sophia Carrington. She just moved from New York to California in search of a new life. When her life took a dark turn she's forced to leave everything behind. She just wants to finish her final year of high school, numb to the world, while learning to cope with the trauma she's endured. Carter Marquez. Newly single after being dumped by his girlfriend of two years. After losing his dad in a car accident he's fallen apart. The list of people he trusts is short, he hates letting people in. He's constantly trying to make up for his mistakes of the past, trying to find a new purpose in life. When the two of them collided, they instantly took a mutual disliking to each other. Misunderstandings and a dash of alcohol set a flame between them. Sophia hates the snarky remarks and stupid nicknames that leave his mouth. Carter thinks Sophia is just another trust fund brat. Soon their rivalry begins to dissolve and they learn that sharing the pain of their past can form connections they never thought to be possible.

"I can't do it" I said "Come on baby you have to learn to fight for when I'm not here anymore, I won't be here to protect you" she said I turned to her "Mom this is too much why can't we just go back with dad" "Avianna! shut up and do it" she shouted I turned around and grabbed the gun in my trembling hands remembering everything my mom taught me on how to hold it I did just that. I held it up and aimed it at the target. "Ma I cant do it" I cried to her. Growing up hearing and seeing guns is one thing but to actually use one is a whole other thing She rolled her eyes "Avianna Erika Vega do you want me to go call Alejandro to encourage you?" "n-no! no ill do it" I said and turned back to the target Come on Avianna you can do it, just one little thing.

Camille Moreau has been mother, sister, and anchor for her sixteen-year-old twin brothers since she was barely old enough to take care of herself. Now, years later, the three of them live in a sunlit villa in Los Angeles - far from their neglectful parents, but still carrying the quiet scars they left behind. Léo, the gentle one with sugar-sweet hands and a stubborn heart, still reaches for safety he never had. Mathis, all walls and sharp edges, protects everyone but himself. And Camille - soft-voiced, steady, endlessly patient - keeps them stitched together with love that refuses to fade. Between late-night cocoa, quiet hospital trips, laughter echoing through hallways, and the occasional fight over Mario Kart, this is the story of how siblings learn to heal - not perfectly, but honestly. a slow, domestic, emotionally raw sibling story about love, care, and the tiny rituals that make a family. _________________ - The story is still under heavy editing . - Vote if you like it. - Don't mind my English, English is not my first language. - Feel free to comment anything that you would like(even hate, i believe it builds character) - This story DOES NOT and WILL NOT include anything sexual or that crosses a line.
