A Summer Romance

"Everything happens for a reason." - Anonymous

The world's a fucked up place, a place that was made for people to suffer. Nothing more, nothing less.

Well, at least that's what Skylar Roberts thought, and her past didn't prove any differently.

She hasn't had the best experience down the road of life and she had learned a long time ago that it's much easier to go through life with no expectations and a closed off heart, not giving a flying fuck about what anyone else thinks of you.

She never believed that there would be anything more to her life, nothing to look forward to or a light at the end of the tunnel. This is it. And nothing could change that.

But once she meets a certain messy-haired boy, things seem to change, boundaries being pushed and secrets being leaked. But despite all he does for her, it doesn't change her opinion. Life is, and always will be, a meaningless cycle.

"Because. No one could make me change my mind. Not even Ryan."
