She was lost and so was he.
Who knew that two broken hearts can connect to one.
Arabella's world has been rigged since the day she was born. Her fate had been decided for her much longer before she even had been conceived in the womb. So it came as...

"Guess who's going to the club, bitches!" Taylor exclaims as she walks into my room, cupping her hands around her lips to amplify her voice across the walls. Vivian, Aria, and Dahlia are sprawled around my room, and all of their ears perk up at Taylor's words.
"I'm afraid I'll have to pass," I sigh, and Taylor immediately frowns at me.
"No, we have to. We haven't seen each other in so long. School's been kicking my ass, and today, I need to get shitfaced drunk." Vivian squeals in delight and nods eagerly.
"I need to reorganize a few things. Since I've been at boarding school, I've been gone for the past year. Nothing's in its proper place. For the next few weeks, that's where my focus should be," I say, sticking to the lie I've told everyone about where I've been for the past year.
"Please, Arabella. It'll be so much fun. Liam said he'll be our designated driver. We can drink as much as we want." There's a flicker of awe that passes over me as I watch the way her eyes light up when she talks about Liam. Apparently, they got together during the year I was gone.

"Pretty please with a cherry on top?" Taylor clasps her hands together, pouting dramatically. Vivian joins in beside her. Then Aria follows. Even Dahlia betrays me by doing the same.
I throw my head back, staring up at the ceiling for a few seconds before looking back down at the pleading group of girls before me. I let out a reluctant sigh and nod my head. Immediately, they swarm around me. They tackle me onto the bed, giggling as I groan beneath them.
These girls are something else.

I tug my dress down again, frustrated as it rides up my leg. Tonight, I'm wearing a silky crimson dress that just won't stay put. My makeup is done by Vivian, who's worked her magic with a stunning nude smokey eye and a splash of red lipstick that makes everything pop.
