(Completed)-

Aria Cadence has lost her passion to sing. For seventeen years, what she once thought was a beautiful escape, is now an unspoken taboo.Her passion for singing has been torn, broken and beaten down to the point that she wants nothing to do with singing-or music for that matter-ever again. And whose to blame her? Having two successful parents in the music industry and an younger sister who is now America's next Taylor Swift puts a lot of pressure on a girl.
  Teegan Kemp is the exact opposite.He wants only one thing in life and that is to thrive in the music world. It's hard business all right, but he has the looks, the voice, and the charisma to make it. 
  But one day is all it takes to change that. In that one fateful day, Teegan learns that he has a progressive disease that will slowly deteriorate his hearing until one day, he wont ever be able to hear again. 
  When Teegan and Aria meet that fateful day in the hospital, Teegan instantly wants a friendship with the hard-shelled Aria. The only thing is, he wants to keep the loss of his hearing a secret to everyone-exspecially Aria. But it's easier said than done with hearts and dreams on the line.

Shaken by Alex's behavior, Kate snapped her face back as some of the photos slapped across her cheek. They crawled down in the air to slowly settle around her feet.

Bending down slowly, she reached out with trembling hands; she picked up one of the photos from the floor and froze. In the photo, Neil, her best friend, and she was making out. Kate remembered this moment, but it was nothing like this. Lifting her eyes from the photo where she had apparently locked lips with Neil, Kate looked back up into Alex's eyes and got scared out of her wits.

There, those emotions were now replaced with endless hatred only. ~Nothing lasts forever; people change, and so change their lives.~ Kate thought she had one forever with Alex, but that forever came to an end too soon. When she was about to tell him the news of her pregnancy, what she expected was his elation and love, never had she thought that she would be punished instead.

He believed she was his unfaithful wife, only to see the truth when the destruction was complete. Prequel: In the Rain (ongoing) Sequel: And Then it Rained (ongoing)
