All Hazel Clarke wants is too not be afraid of the ocean. And when you live in a small town on the coast, it's pretty important to not be afraid of water. But ever since the accident that occurred years ago, she can't go into the water past her ankles.
August Greene is shy, to say the least. If one were to say a little bit more about him, one would say that he can barely utter a word to anyone who isn't his siblings. His escape from his stressful life is the ocean, the magic he possesses allowing him to dive without surfacing for hours.
When August and Hazel meet one another, they make a promise. Hazel will help August find his voice, and August will help Hazel get over her phobia of the waters he calls home.

As the pair explores every corner the town has to offer, Emilia finds a crush left over from the school year turning into maybe something more. In this feel-good, summer short story, attractions are strong and smiles can be found all around as two young adults realize that all this time the other had been paying attention. excerpt: ""Okay, okay!" Damian's laughter was warm as he took the cracker, the smile forming on his face one of the kind that made the world unbelievably bright despite the dark sky above them. Emilia couldn't help but smile in return, warmth flooding her chest at the sight of his crinkling eyes. He was just so beautiful. She didn't know how many times she'd thought it since first meeting him last winter, but she was sure, as her eyes lingered for a long time on every angle and curve of his face, that she would never stop thinking it. That she would never think it too much because it was so absolutely true. The way the moon caught on the few gold strands strewn throughout his brown hair, the curve of his lips in his smile, the sparkle of the stars reflected in his eyes. She wanted to memorize him, to recall every freckle and eyelash, to never forget the way he blinked-softly-or the way he breathed-steadily." **WARNING: -considerable swearing -TW: brief discussion of depression in Chapter 4, bipolar disorder in Chapter 5Complete
