The first instalment of the Cherished series.
"How can a bad day change so quickly into a good one? How can one person know about so many beautiful places? How can that same person manage to captivate me even though I barely know anything about him...
A/N - Okay, so I've been thinking about changing the cover. I know what you're probably thinking "Wow, Chloe. Changing the cover after like a day? Can't you stick with anything?" And the answer is no I can't. I want to know if you guys think another possible cover I made is better. Here it is:

So what do you few readers think? The cover I have now or this one? Anyway, let's get back to the story.

Flynn's P.O.V -
I stopped outside her front door, hesitant to knock. If I do this, what will she think? Has she been replaying our encounters in her head like I have? Is she as confused as I am? I can't let the past get in the way of now. Evie seems nice and I can't pass up the chance to make friends.
I knock on the door.
"Hey." She's wearing a black dress, she wasn't wearing that earlier.
"Hi. Sorry, it took me a while to find your house."
"It's alright. Do you wanna come in?"
"Yeah."
She opens the door wider and steps aside to let me in. As I walk inside I look around at the newly painted walls and cardboard boxes scattered around.
"It's kind of a mess at the moment. We haven't finished unpacking."
She seems weirdly comfortable with having a stranger in her house. Who does she think I am?
"It's nice."
Evie walks up the stairs and I follow. She leads me to her bedroom.
"So, what's it like? Moving about so much, I mean."
"Well, making friends is hard. Keeping them is harder."
"You sound like my sister."
"How?"
"She's a writer. Angie's always saying deep stuff like that."
"You think I'm deep?"
"Isn't everyone?"
We stare at each other in awkward silence for a while.
