She had been sexually abused at the age of 5 she's never trusted any man that's ever made any kind of contact with her. Even after all the years of therapy there hasn't been anything to help her through her fear of being harmed like the way she was that day. She lives with her little sister Chloe and Terra two trouble making 6 year olds that make her life stressful, because her parents are never around to take care of them because of their Realestate business going anywhere else, but up. Rain is now starting school in a brand new state where she meets her bestfriend, and her older brother. She immediately grows a liking towards the guy, by attraction, but she's never felt anything like that feeling before... hopefully she gets over the whole fear of all men thing.

The girl from New York
Completed✔️ Disclaimer: I wrote this when I was 15 so it is a bit cliché, and many mistakes in the story:) All Brooklyn's life, she's been more of a boy than a girl. She's only ever lived with her single dad and her three older brothers, which means she was bound to grow up more like them. So, when she moved all the way from New York to Tennessee, it wasn't much of a surprise until she met Alex, the one of many popular boys at the high school. Until she realized that Alex decided to make her life a living hell. Well, that's what Brooklyn thought, at least... ___ "He leaned in and put a hand behind my head to kiss me, leaving me frozen and speechless. Almost instinctively, after a moment of processing, I stood on my tippy toes and replaced my fingers in his hair, my other hand on his neck. Butterflies exploded in my stomach, replacing my hunger for food, as he pressed me against a vacant wall. Without a word, he lifted me up while my legs wrapped around his waist, leaning in closer to him, even after there was no more space to fill."
