What if a car crash took your childhood best friend's life, only for her to reappear years later with no memory of you?
Vincent Athelsten, a 15-year-old high school student with a strong academic record, still cherishes the memory of his childhood best friend, Emma. Unbeknownst to him, Emma survived the tragic car crash that was believed to have claimed her life. Now known as Lina Hayes, she lives with amnesia, adopted by a detective who fabricated her past.
As fate brings them together at Oakland High, Vincent is drawn to Lina, sensing a familiar connection he can't explain. Their paths intertwine through shared classes and a school film project titled "Her Un-Story," which eerily mirrors Lina's own missing past. While Vincent prepares for a daunting public speaking challenge, he grapples with the unsettling possibility that Lina is Emma.
Will Vincent uncover the truth about Lina's identity, or will their shared past remain a forgotten secret? It might just be a matter of time until he uncovers the truth, but how will he know it? Will it be by coincidence, does he know it all along, or is there something more sinister at play?

Shawn looked at me with a puzzled face. "What are you writing?" I looked up from my new journal and smiled. "I'm writing everything that has happened lately, so that I don't forget. If I don't write this quickly, I'll forget it. And besides, this way I will know what not to do the next time I meet a handsome boy." He smiled. "So, basically it's an idiot's guide to falling in love?" I laughed. "Yes, exactly." We both stayed silent for a few seconds, just looking into each other's eyes. "Wait, did you just call me an idiot?" He looked at me, trying to contain his laughter, but he couldn't. * There's a thin line between love and hate. Very few are brave enough to cross it.

Aren't you happy?" "Of course I'm happy! But what about us? What about everything we planned?" I close to crying. "When I come back, we'll do it all." "Promise?" "Promise." He got up and left. I sat there, letting all the tears flow out. I hoped he kept his-no-our promise. Maybe, just maybe, I'll tell him the truth.Complete

From a dead end job to a useless crazy ex boyfriend- my happiness is with my best friend yet the fear of our relationship ending completely scares me and id rather fake it and be in fear than find out and never be happy.

As a whole they are deeply loved and equally as hated by others but the love from one another is undeniable, if only she wasnt so selfish with her choices and words- -Lying, cheating, sneaking, crying- many acts and emotions come from within when there's someone you love unaware of that love.. Possibly growing to love someone else right before your eyes..Its gut wrenching, i know because ive fucked up. Its worse when you're aware of the harm you cause yourself and others but dont care how the outcome turns out to be. Why would it matter how it effects you if youre used to pain and people leaving? it wouldnt. All because you take comfort in your own mind and mental illness, once you realize you have freewill it may become a bad thing if youre careless.- - Gabriella White.Complete
