Being out-shadowed by her older sister is one thing. Being out-shadowed by her best friend Paris Hall is another.
Welcome to the life and mind of Melody Russell, a future writer and artist! She's ordinary, mostly, until the one day when a mysterious messenger comes and whisks her away to a special world of beauty and joy.
NOTE: My story settings say that I have readers in Oman, Nigeria, the UK, Russia, Croatia, the US (of course), and Mexico. So to all of my international Oman, Nigerian, UK, Russian, Croatian, and Mexican readers, Wow! I never thought I would have readers in Africa or Europe (don't worry Mexico, I haven't forgotten about you, but we live in the same continent so that's not really international....), but it's happened. Unless you lied, of course, but if you did, DON'T comment that. I have to bask in my happiness.
I would bet none of you have ever had that dream summer that all of us want.... that summer where you meet a boy on the beach and go surfing even though you don't know how to surf. That summer where you look him in the eyes while he runs his fingers through your hair. That summer where you skateboard along empty streets at sunset and accidentally steal candy from a grocery store.
Well... I didn't get that.... but I got pretty close to it.
Because for the summer I went to an island in the middle of nowhere so my dad could start up a new one of his businesses in his chain of stores. I went to the beach.
And I met Royce... Royce was two years older than me and had the prettiest purplish eyes and blonde hair. He was the most charismatic person I'd ever met.
Then shortly after me and Royce's first appearance we met Jack and Koa.
It was amazing and I loved every second of it, until I realized that I had fallen for Royce.
And he seemed to fall for me too!
Until another girl came into the mix
𖣔
"Do you hate me or not Royce?"
"I wish I never fucking spoke to you because god I hate you so fucking much for making me love you! It's your fucking fault! Fuck you!"
"And do you love her?!"
"Way more than I will ever love you."
