Sky has her own list of never ending problems that seems to only be growing. Every time she solved one of them, two more would appear. Eventually, she did what all of us would do; she gave up. Instead she started to help fix the problems of those around her, so when her best friend suffers a hard loss from heartbreak, Sky makes it her duty to help her. The best way to cure heartbreak was to move on. Sky had done it many times herself. That's what people don't notice. She hides her problems behind a smile, she doesn't let them see just how broken she is. You can't make anyone happy if you aren't happy yourself. So she puts up a front, most of the time it works and the line between reality and acting blurs, but the sadness is always there. The only way to be happy is to delude herself into believing she is. What happens when her happy front doesn't fool everyone? What happens when someone looks close enough to see the real Sky. What's worse is who that someone happens to be. He's not a bad boy. He definitely isn't a good boy. He isn't the outcast, but he isn't the classical popular guy either. He's good at sports, but not enough to be classified as a jock. Instead he's the class clown, the one cracking the jokes during class all the time. The one who knows exactly how to lighten a dark mood. You would think that he'd be perfect for the job, being so happy and everything, but what if he isn't? What if the only one who happens to notice something is the one who can't help her. I mean, how can he help someone he can't even understand? But like every story, there's always two sides. There's always another person dealing with their own trouble that no one notices. And maybe at the end of the day, he isn't such a bad guy for the job after all...

"Are you ever afraid of being alone?" I asked after a while. A question that had randomly popped into my mind. I wasn't expecting him to answer me, but he did. Jonah turned his face, but I didn't look back at him, I kept staring up at the skies. He turned back to the sky and took a breather before answering. "We're always going to be alone, Rose. Always. We'll be haunted by the darkness that is our own shadow, but in every shadow there's a light." He answered, as if the simplest thing in the world. I only stared at him with a dropped jaw. That was out of this world. Especially coming from Jonah. "When does it get better?" I mumbled. "It doesn't. But to go through it with someone makes it a whole lot easier." He turned back to face me. We stared at each other for a while. He'd always occasionally look down at my lips, and I'd do the same to him. I broke it off and looked back up at the sky. -=- New York City. The place of opportunities. But what shall Rose do when there's so many of them? Jonah, the seducer with a British accent, or Cameron, equally British but sweet. Her clock is ticking. She has one year to make up her mind until the exchange program takes back all their Brits and their New Yorkers return. And so the end-of-the-year party is the final strike. Either Rose chooses...or she doesn't. *WARNING* I began this book (my first book ever) when I was like 11 or 12 years old so the first chapters (idk how many) suck, not gonna lie. I had scrapped so many ideas (that I only really wrote a few chapters of) that when I was older enough to realize the story I had going so far sucked, I didn't want to scrap again, so I finished for that sake in a span of 3 years (and ended in 2014). All in all, not my greatest work, but read on if you wish. Text Copyright © droppedintoxic™ 2014
