Amira and Asher were inseparable from the ages of 1-13. How could they not be? They lived right beside each other, and they were the best of friends. Nothing could separate them. 

But suddenly,  Asher's dad got a new job in New York and he had to move states when he was 13. Amira was crushed, missing him more and more every day. They keep in touch until the age of 15, when they stop contacting each other abruptly. 

Fast forward to when both the kids are 17. Asher is back in his hometown and desperately wants to reunite with Amira. But Amira is not the same happy kid she was 4 years ago. Something happened to her- but what? 

This is the story of Amira and Asher finding themselves- and each other. 

*I'm so bad at descriptions, please give my book a chance! I promise you will fall in love with Amira and Asher as much as I have :)*

Trust? by artsykid04

Easton King has had a hard life. His parents abandoned him as a toddler and he's been from home to home for as long as he can remember. Nobody seems to want him, they just keep him for a little and eventually they all throw him away to be somebody else's problem. Because of this, he has never been close to anyone. He's learned from a young age that he can't trust anybody to stick with him. Don't get me wrong, he still has friends. In fact, Easton is one of the most popular boys in school. No one knows about his home life because he never talks about it and never hangs out with people outside of school. Derek Danvers (his friends jokingly call him DeeDee) has had a better life. He lives with his family and they are loving and decently forgiving like most parents are. He has suffered from depression and anxiety but not nearly as severely as Easton. He lives his life one day at a time and he doesn't depend on his friends but he trusts that they'll stay by his side, and if they don't then it's for the best. They didn't deserve him. Everyone in the school knows Easton puts up walls. No one gets within two or three feet of him, no one asks about his home life, and no one asks if they can go to his house or if he can go to theirs. He has rules everyone knows. What happens when someone finally tries to push the rules? To build up the trust one once lost? Read to find out **Edited
