*** Now here's the thing about hope. Not Hope the girl, hope the word. It means looking forward to something pleasant in the possible future. The thing about Hope the girl is that she and Jayden have no possible future. Hope and Jay have no hope. *** The moment Hope met Jayden Holmes was the worst moment of her life. Mostly because he's a total douchebag. From his cocky little smirk to his know-it-all stature. The thing about Jay is that he's just a little boy pretending to be a man. *** The thing about Hope is... She doesn't hope for anything at all. She doesn't hope to pass her next test or score the hottest guy in school. All she wants is to be left alone in her own miserable existence on this futile and dying earth. Jay tried to lighten her up, once, to make her smile. It didn't work out so well. But the thing about Hope is... Jay just can't stay away. Romance is something of a myth to girls like Hope, a fairytale told to small children bringing them hope for the life they might have. But the true meaning of romance is an insufferable tolerance for someone's flaws, in exchange for a fake "understanding" of one another. Bullshit. Happy endings are stories. And Hope doesn't believe any of them, not after what happened to her. The thing about Hope is... Nobody knows anything about her at all.All Rights Reserved
