[an AU hayley x rebekah story] ~Active November 2024~

Secrets. Disorders. Agony.

Hayley Marshall is a 19 year old college student who is troubled, to say the least. She fuels off rage by displaying an aggressive demeanor due to past traumas as well as ongoing abuse at home. Many fail to recognize this as what resides within Hayley tells a deeper, more sinister story. The story of that once 9 year old little girl, who fell victim to... too many things. Things nobody can ever know about. She's hiding because she's afraid of who she's becoming, afraid of abandonment yet again, and afraid she could unknowingly be her own assassin. She's longing to be saved, but her hope is dwindling.

Rebekah Mikaelson, on the other hand, is a 21 year old with a very promising future. Excelling in all her studies as well as being a star athlete in her college, here is a girl who is endearing outwardly, but not so much inward. She despises the girl she sees when she looks in the mirror because she doesn't recognize herself. All the praise and cheers she gets at school and on the field, they feed her ego, but the silence and neglect at home, deflate the girl she is at heart. Likewise to Hayley, there are struggles of Rebekah she keeps under the wraps as well; things no one can ever know about.

That is until they meet, and feel threatened by each other at first. Though with enough time and confrontations, it isn't long until Hayley and Rebekah start to see through one another as they tear down each other's walls.
