Welcome to Long Beach! A beautiful city known for it's wonderous beach and excellent atmosphere, but to the new freshman of LBHS (Long Beach High School), it's anything but. Summer's all over and with the school year just beginning, two crews erupt from their ever so popular lives ready to hit freshman year by storm. In the game of survival of the fittest, only the popular can strive to stay above the rest with hopes of claiming their own spotlight. The city is swarming with secrets, boyfriend snatchers, and enemies from all sides. So, who do you trust? Follow the students as they try to grasp onto the tip of the social totem pole and fight to stay there in the first installment to The Shore, and remember secrets never make friends.
They were trouble. You could just tell by looking at them. They didn't talk to anybody, besides others in the group and people in our school spread stories about them all the time. They were intriguing and we all wanted to be apart of them. But of course, they weren't exactly open to letting others in.
Overtime peoples wanting to be apart of them lessened or went away all together. But mine never did and I knew exactly why.
It was her. The way she held herself and the mystery of what not only they held but what she held to. I figured it would just be an infatuation from afar.
But oh how I was wrong.
