Description
"Try not to be stupid next time, okay?" When he's told shortly after graduation that he didn't actually pass and, in order to truly earn his diploma, he must redo his senior year math credit, Casey Jones isn't sure how things could get worse. He knows school isn't his strong suit, but faced with yet another failure, he wonders if it would be better to just give up. Then, things do get worse, and he loses his dad in a car accident that he blames himself for. Spiralling into depression, Casey faces a future that he can't picture. Everyone is moving on with their lives, moving on to bigger and better things, and he's stuck in the same place he's been for years. His dad is dead, his sister moves out, and he knows it will only be a matter of time before the friends he has left leave him behind. No one feels the way he does, and he's sure that that's the truth until he meets her. She has secrets that she won't share and a past that she keeps hidden. They share the darkness and yet, together, they start to see things in a new light. Song: Hole In My Heart by Sleeping with Sirens
