"Two lonely souls become a not so lonely pair"
When alone in an empty world, when you start to think that everything has given up on you, right when you're about to give up on yourself, Alexis finally finds someone to help her find her place in this empty planet, but will she ever be able to fill the hole in her empty heart?
A few things you should probably know about me before you read this,
I am very lazy, I'm also awful at grammar so if I make any mistakes at least I warned you so no complaining.
I don't know if the story line is even that good either, mostly because I just thought of an idea and stuck to it because I'm lazy, but hey ho you never know till you try it so just give it a go. (Damn that was a good rhyme)
So anyway all you really need to know is the confusing story line, this is a story about a girl named Alexis writing a story on watt pad, whilst trying to get through each day without a fresh scar. So basically the story will be a mix between real life and a fantasy she is writing.
Just read the first chapter, and if for some reason you enjoy it, well then read on and be patient till I post another chapter.
Hope you enjoy, as I said this is my first story so don't expect too much,

The first touch burns. The second will change her life.
In the future, humans will never see each other face to face. Technology will facilitate all interactions, from emails to spoken conversations to a hike up a tree-lined mountain. They'll rely on machines to provide them with their basic needs and favorite indulgences, and they'll never know another person's touch.
This is the world Alexis is born into.
A grad student slated to become impregnated in a few months' time, Lexi's been struggling with her wild and reckless thoughts. Why aren't they allowed to question the Government's decisions? What if her friend, Parker, is right, and the pill regimen they're on deadens their sense of touch? And why does her heart stop and her chest squeeze whenever she's around Drew?
Drew's a dangerous man. He asks the questions she's afraid to voice and makes her think. Makes her wonder. Makes her yearn. He promises to help her find the answers, the two of them fumbling toward something they don't understand.
The first touch is painful, the second one less so. Each one awakens feelings Lexi has no words for, until she craves Drew like an addict needing a fix. As they discover what the Government has kept from them all their lives, they fight to find a way to have it all - even as it threatens to destroy them forever.
