"Matthew, you can't back out of this! You swore on it, remember?!" I yelled, my voice cracking painfully, tears streaming down my face. He shook his head turning away, but I grabbed his sleeve desperately. "You promised..." I whispered feebly, trying to hold on to him like it was my life's worth. "Autumn," he said softly, and I looked up. "Yeah?" I asked quietly. "Promises are meant to be broken," he said, ripping his arm away from my grasp, leaving me in a shocked and saddened state. Maybe it just wasn't meant to be. *** Autumn Belladonna Charson is just a regular senior girl with a crush on her best friend. It's like every typical romance story, but unlike every typical romance story, this isn't destined to work out. But maybe another relationship is.
