"You know the truth, Alexander, you know why I was sent away for the summer, why won't you tell me?" My faces scrunches together thoughtfully.
"I can't, Elsie, you wouldn't understand, if I tell you then it would be the end of everything." His arms move as if to hug me but drop to his sides a second later. I look at his face, his dimples and the crease between his brows. All the parts I had come to know like the back of my hand now become a stranger to me.
"The end of what, Alex, what could be so important that you can't tell me?" You're best friend? The person you tell everything too? I bite my tongue.
"You, Elisabeth. It would mean the end of us and everything else that I love."
••••
Elisabeth Stevanchi finally returns to her family circus after leaving months earlier and is greeted by a long lost friend. But as she settles in, Elisabeth discovers what she's missed and the real reason she was sent away.

Rules to Feeling Lonely
Alone. A simple word that has always held many meanings to Ella, and starting her senior year at a new high school, solitude had seemed the easiest way to go. A week passed, bland and unnoticed, before her plans quickly get thrown overboard. Losing one of her most priced possessions, she finds herself making a rather simple deal with someone from school. His name, for her book. There's only one little problem; she has no idea who this person is. Laughs and tears, friends and heartbreak, and the past that comes knocking on the door. Ella faces it all as she takes on the search to find her secret admirer. ___________________ "I can't believe him after the texts, the letter, the flowers. All these months and he just tells me 'we'll talk later'", I told him, feeling absolutely frustrated. I am so damn stupid, thinking this was gonna be something special or whatever. "It isn't him", he suddenly spoke and I just rolled my eyes. He doesn't even know what he's talking about, the imbisile. "It is, you don't even know what you're talking about so shut up", I cried out, walking forth and back for the hundredth time. "Listen, I do and it isn't him", he yelled this time and I stopped walking, angrily turning to him. Can he stop just pissing me off even more? "Oh yeah? And how are you so sure?" "Because it's me"Complete

"I guess it's just overwhelming that's all. You know, with the whole 'city of love' thing going on and everything that's just happened.
