TRIGGER WARNING
---
Ashley White is a teenage girl who is suffering with depression and PTSD from her father's passing.

Nicholas Camiro is a teenage boy who is trying to be true to himself and figure out his parent's shady past.

They never thought that each of their parents' connections to each other would bring them closer than ever.
----
A/N: this was originally written as a novella in 2018 and has some triggering scenes. I do not wish to romanticize mental health and self-harm in any way or form. The plot is not completely sad the whole way through, the ending is completely different.

Hope you enjoy ;) if you need help, my inbox is always open.
