At age 5, mine and Noah's relationship started with a promise. A promise of eternal friendship in the thoughts that nothing detrimental could ever happen. No matter what life threw at us, we'd face it together. By the time we were 7, we had fallen in love. Noah stole roses for me and was set in protecting me from the world. When we were 9 we got married in my backyard and added onto our previous promise. We promised forever. Only when I was 13 did I have my first actual kiss. Kissing him, it felt like falling in love and I knew that he was the only person that I could ever want. Around age 14 I began to see the world as it was for mine had come crashing down around me and not just because I had my first fight with Noah. At the age of 15 the lines of our promises started to blur and with it my heart broke. Without a word, Noah left, leaving me more broken than before. Our relationship ending with a mistake. I met Gavin when I was 16. He helped me forget about everything. He helped me move on from Noah. I fell for him. Now, I'm 17 and my life was beyond perfect. That was of course, up until the day that Noah returned.

*EDITORS' CHOICE 2021*After falling for her senior year teacher, Louise learns a harsh lesson on what adulthood isn't. Louise has some trauma to unpack. Heartbreak's a bitch, and her first relationship had been anything but normal. Thinking herself mature for her age, her affair with Mr. Cain started swooningly well. Except things ended quite abruptly. It's a lot for a seventeen year old to handle. But who's really at fault for what happened? Who even is Mr. Cain, and what is he hiding? From the wreckage of her naivety and self-esteem, can Louise save her friendships and rebuild herself? Our love songs aren't telling the whole truth. How can this be? In this tale of vulnerability, adolescence and painful reckoning, the arrogance of youth demands a price. * "'You're what, Louise?' he asked. 'You're sorry? What am I supposed to do here? How can I turn this around? How can I tell you that everything you want and feel is reciprocated, when I have to go back to work and pretend none of it happened?' 'I don't know the answer!' I cried. 'Neither of us do.' I threw my hands up in defeat. He caught them before they could fall. 'But how do I go back to living without your words?' His voice became a whisper. He squeezed my fingers tightly, closing his eyes and bringing them to his chest. 'I need how you make me feel, Luiza. I need it to feel alive. I won't stay away. No one's made me feel this good before. And I can't stand myself for wanting what I want. What do I do?' I was a violin bow on the verge of splintering. Every inch of me pulsed with an ache that began from the marrow of my bones. Fate had brought us here. At this crossroads of ours, there were a hundred different choices to make. A thousand different lifetimes to choose from, stemming from and decided entirely by my next choice. And in the end, I chose incorrectly. I held his face between my hands, feeling the echoing pulse of his skin. I brought his face to mine. I kissed him."
