Kassandra Brooks, a seventeen year old basketball player, has lived in San Diego her entire life. She's never travelled, never moved, never left; She's never needed to. As much as she enjoys spontaneity and change, her life doesn't bring much of it.
Nathan Garcia's never been anywhere for too long. His parents loved exploring and changing things up. They enjoyed doing new things so much that they couldn't seem to stop. Eventually it cost Nathan's family their unity.
When Nathan is forced to move in with the mother he can't stand in San Diego, his life changes so quickly that he can't keep up. In an attempt to find balance, he befriends his neighbour Kassandra, but they soon prove to not be able to stand each other either, and they don't want to.
But life doesn't really give two shits about what you want, does it?

Everything Has Changed
"If you asked me three months ago what heartbreak was, I would tell you it's losing somebody close to you due to unspeakable circumstances. But right now, in this moment, I would say it's you. I would say it's the feeling I got in my chest when I realized I was out of time. When I stood in the rain and yelled for you to stay, but all I saw was your back. I would say heartbreak is lying in bed at two in the morning, watching my ceiling fan go around and around, wondering why you couldn't stop to listen. Two seconds. All I needed was two seconds to say the words. All I needed was to seconds for me to tell you I was in love with you. With everything about you. With the way you move, and the feeling of your arms around me. With the feeling of your chest vibrating as you laugh. Heartbreak is falling in love with everything about you, but having the words permanently stuck in my throat." _____ Gracelyn Levinsky grew up with Daniel Grey.
