Singed Eyebrows & Small Town Diners

"Picture the cliché couple. You know, the ones that meet by chance; whether they're neighbors or they're best friends who fell in love or the cheerleader and the jock. Every high school has one. Everyone adores them. But not me. Because I despise clichés and I hate happy love stories. I've seen to much of the world to believe they could happen. But if this is how I've always felt, why is it that he managed to change my mind?"

Alice Carson has never believed in happy endings of any sort. Don't get me wrong, she isn't depressed or anything. She's just been through enough in this world to know that all good things must come to an end.
