You move on to college because someone you loved would've been furious if you didn't. It isn't exciting, and it definitely isn't the fresh start everyone swears it's supposed to be. You go to class, keep your head down, and try not to think too hard about everything you'd rather forget.

It works... until it doesn't.

The past has terrible timing.

Old faces come back, old habits start creeping in, and memories you spent years trying to bury suddenly feel impossible to ignore. Every time life settles down, something else drags you into another problem.

Somehow, you keep ending up exactly where you don't want to be.

Then there's Levi.

He's not exactly your friend, but calling him your enemy wouldn't make much sense either. The two of you keep ending up in the middle of situations neither of you asked for, cleaning up messes that should've belonged to someone else.

Maybe college would've been easier if you'd never met him... or maybe that's where everything finally starts.

Come home, Birdie.
