The saying might be 'Best Friends Forever', but it certainly didn't feel that way. Not since Cristina Flint left Poseidon Bay. Ever since her big move to San Francisco, the group of four best friends has been estranged.
Until one fateful day when Cris finds herself back home with high hopes of returning things to the way they were before.
But things are different now. Everyone in the group has grown up from their elementary school ways. They've all bonded new relationships and have different interests. And problems. Nate is trying to balance his girlfriend and his parent's divorce, Colin struggles to meet the standards of popularity, and Aidan tries to find a way to live almost entirely on his own. All Cris wants is to mend the relationships she left so long ago. How can she make three people going in three completely different directions see eye to eye again? And what happens when all three boys realize that they might even have feelings for their old childhood friend? It's time for Cris to fix things, starting from here.

Growing Pains
In the day-to-day trenches of high school, it is almost the default-setting to believe we are the main character of our own coming-of-age story. This is not wrong. It's just ours isn't the only story there is. The jocks, the nerds, the cheerleaders, the losers, the stoners, the fangirls, the skaters. Everyone's the realest most important person in existence, all of them, at the same time, first-person narrators to their own stories, stumbling into each other's plot lines, defying the status-quo, catalysts to ups and downs. A deconstruction of all the high school tropes and cliches written over the years, a deep-dive into the psyche of students trying to finish high school while going through irrevocable self-discovery, the most improbable of connections, and the insufferable pains of growing up.Complete

My Best Friend
"You're leaving for Scotland ?" I asked in astonishment. "When ?" My best friend, Katherine stared into my blue eyes. "Tonight." "Wait, what ? You're leaving tonight and you didn't even tell me earlier ?" No, she wouldn't do this. She must have been joking. She shrugged. Her brown eyes shined under the sun. "I now tell you." "Yeah. Thanks for telling me now." I folded my arms in front of my chest. "But why ?" "I need to start over a new life." She moved her sight away, not looking at me. I shook my head. This wasn't right. "You think that I can manage my high school life without my best friend ?" Her blonde curls were blown in the wind. "Then make a new one." She said still facing Thames. "What ? You are the only one that I can talk about those boys-" She cut me off, "About the boys, don't judge their faces again, please. As I always have said, keep personality in mind." I stood there dumbfounded. What was happening ? "Goodbye, Andy." She then walked away. 2016. JanuaryComplete
