Chapter 1

Ally's mother has recently passed away, and she is very upset. She is forced to go to her funeral, and while she is there, she bumps into her old childhood friend, Austin. Austin and Ally were best friends when they were younger, but for some reason, when they were both thirteen, Austin completely stopped talking. Austin was the most popular kid in school, and now he is bullied everyday. Ally never understood why he stopped talking, until she heard his heartbreaking story, and she realizes why he was so upset. ~Named after a song by The Fray~
