Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. - Groucho Marx

I stare at the bundle of flowers in my hands and all I can think of is her. The sound of her voice, her laugh, the twinkle in her eye and it takes all I have to not break down and cry. I know she's not ever coming back but sometimes it feels like she never left...and that's what hurts the most.

Daisy Fields a 19 year old girl trying to keep what's left of her mother's business going. Her father's never home always gone somewhere getting drunk trying to find a way to blur the pain. She has hope that one day he will change for he's all that she has left. She just want's to make her mother proud and that's all she has left to hope for.

 Xavier Storm a 19 year old troublemaker that always seem to rub people the wrong way. He doesn't listen to anybody and only helps himself. People see him as nothing but a cold hearted kid that shows no emotion but on the inside he's hurting just like everyone else. He's determined to one day not mess something up and to make someone proud but it's hard when no one gives him a chance. That's all he's waiting for.

Can these two people help each other grow or will they be the cause of each other's fall?
