Emry learned young that the only person that'll love and protect you is yourself. She never gets close to people. She stays away, that way they wouldn't be able to hurt her. Her life has been filled with betrayal and its a constant reminder that people are cruel beings. She's better off being alone, or at least that's what she thought.
Enter Kaiden Adams, he's the poster boy for the perfect child. He's a sweet guy who looks at the best in people. Too bad he can't see his long time girlfriend for who she really is. One of his biggest problems is he hates change and sometimes doesn't know what he wants. When the new girl walks in with her head down something about her draws him in, and it isn't pity.
Can Emry actually let him in enough to actually trust him? Will it be worth it or will it just make her even more broken?

Say you love me
"I want to help you." His bright eyes sparkle in the moonlight. "You can't help me! You hurt me!" By now, the tears I had been desperately trying to hold back finally slip out. "They hurt you!" As he yells, the anger in his voice eases out; his eyes are filled with familiar sadness. "I have nowhere else to go." I shoot back, taking a step away from him, afraid he will strike me as everyone else does. As soon as he notices this, his eyes widen, and his fists relax. "Come with me." He responds, hope gleaming in his eyes. I look up at the bright moon shining down on us as the breeze ruffles my hair. "Come with you?" I question. Just as he nods my dizziness takes over, sending me to the ground. His hands wrap around me, barely catching me. "Don't let them hurt me." I whisper, looking into his eyes, trying to not let the spinning world take me. "They won't hurt you anymore. Ever." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tivelly always seemed like the popular girl, always filling the room with her laughs and bright smiles.
