*Sequel to Close* Jason grabbed my arm forcing me to stop mid-spin to look into his worry- filled emerald eyes. "You're surrounded by people who don't want to let you go Kiara." I shook my head. "Maybe they should. I don't want to hurt anyone anymore! I can't lose anyone else." I countered, my voice cracking as my eyes grew moist with tears. He snaked his hand around my waist gently pulling me into a hug. I took in the smell of him, the feeling of his warmth, the comfort of his sincerety. But it wasn't enough. I had set off a chain reaction and I was prepared to stop it. I tore from his grasp and stalked away from him. "You can't do this by yourself!" He called after me. I slipped on my jacket and zipped it up. "Watch me." ~•~ Battered and broken, Kiara wakes up into a life she can't remember. The love of the people around her seems to do more harm then good in her quest to find answers. With the loss of her best friend and first love Matt, she can't help but feel like it was her fault. Little does she know she sits in the middle of so much more. Old friends, but new faces to her, return. And they return along with bits and pieces of her memory. She begins to think that maybe it's just better to forget, but forgetting could also make her lose everything.

"What do you want?" I snap, slamming my locker shut. His casual smirk, messy dark hair, tan skin, strong arms, eerie storm-grey eyes... the list could go on of things I notice- that I shouldn't notice- about him. "Oh, I want a lot of things." He inspects a speck of dirt on his arm. "I'm sure you've heard the news?" His eyes flicker back up to meet mine. Does he know? No. He can't. So I roll my eyes. He can't know that I know, that I would do anything to be the first one he tells. "You'll have to be more specific." I mutter, trying to look casual as I inspect my nails. "Well, it involves a certain title of the swim team," He offers. I shrug. "So you got captain. That's cool. And what do I have to do with that?" He narrows his eyes, trying to read my expression. Unfortunately for him, I have mastered the art of hiding my emotions. "This is what I wanted to talk to you about. During English," He fiddles with his sweater sleeve. "I recall you trying to talk to me," I frown. "Well, I..." He swallows, seeming... nervous? "I'm not doing too great... subject wise. And if I don't pick up my ass soon, I might be forced to quit." He rubbed the back of his neck, making his shirtsleeve slide up his arm to reveal a strong bicep. Not that I notice. I narrow my eyes. "And what do I get back in return?" I cross my arms. I'm going to be late for the bus if we don't hurry. He studies my face. "Name your price." He mirrored my position. I sigh. Money... but I don't need it. Popularity... but I don't want it. I meet his gaze steadily. He lifts his chin, the tiniest bit, but it doesn't intimidate me. I square my shoulders and stand up straight. He's only just taller than me.
