Two people. Several problems. One solution.

Warren Kelly: Anarchist, problem student with a slight disability. Despite being extremely intelligent and a star basketball player, the outlook of his future and even the way he lives in the present; self centred, biased and vengeful can create a mess so large that he wouldn't be able to escape.

Freddie Blackley: Introverted, rich, cello loving girl from a broken home. She lives in a sad dormitory at her school after she was forced to leave home. With her insecurities, her self doubts and several other family secrets that unveil a dark, sinister nature, she slowly turned into something she never thought she could become.

As they venture their last high school year before entering a big and exciting world waiting for them, they have to save themselves from drowning in the cruelest waters known to man: Themselves. 

Warning: Strong language and mentions of sadism, child abuse and depression.

My Girl by anya_jayvyn

Cal Jackson's new life as a rockstar fails to account for one thing: the existence of the girl he loves. ***** "What are you thinking about?" she asks. "A song," I say. "A new song." I stare at the ocean as I sing the song that I wrote, something that comes from the darkest place of my heart. "Do you even know how gifted you are?" she whispers. "You're destined to be someone big, Cal." "Really?" "Yeah." ***** She's perfect in every way. Beautiful. Smart. Her bright future is right there in front of her eyes. While here I am. Ruined. No college, let alone a future. Just an image of a wannabe rockstar with tattoed arms and an old guitar. I knew that our story would be no less than that tragic Romeo and Juliet shit the moment I laid my eyes on her, but still, I can't resist her. The moment she whispers my name, "Cal," I lose all sanity. She becomes my melody, my lyrics, the song that keeps echoing in my ears. People call her Mia. I call her my Amy, her name crafted above my beating heart, tattoed on my skin. Amelia Davis is my girl. Mine. And only mine. © 2021 Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved.

"Today isn't about you, Gemma," Bowie says, catching me by surprise.
