They say fear ends where faith begins
But my faith is just ashes in the wind
And anxiety catches my breath through the fallen cracks of my broken reality
And it's only just the beginning.
------------------------------
Sophie is best friends with Daniel and is just getting over the death of her mother. She only recently convinced herself that her mother's death was an accident, but after someone sneaks into her room at night, she feels she can't trust anyone, especially since Daniel stopped believing in her suspicions... But that changes when she meets Oliver. He understands her. He starts to take up most of her time, and she rejects Daniel's request to amend their friendship. This only leads to frustration and anger. Manipulated, Sophie starts making decisions on a whim, putting herself and others in danger, when all she wants is answers.
(I'll improve this summary as I go,so please bear with me. I have the first two chapters written now and I really just want to post them)

An internal voice whispered, "Call him." But I chose not to. I dismissed it once more, saying, "He never liked me anyway." Yet the dilemma lingered. "But maybe he does. The way he looks at you... it's different." Out of nowhere, he glanced my way. My heartbeat quickened, sending shivers down my spine. I averted my gaze, pretending to look around. "Has he noticed me? No, wait-oh my god." --- After switching high schools, Nina discovered a new way of life. She fell in love, made wonderful friends, and everything seemed perfect. But Ethan-a popular boy who never focused on anyone but her-was the object of her hatred. He was always there, always keeping her safe. He used to annoy her endlessly. She hated him deeply.
