    "You know...I thought I was just being a good friend by telling you. But no...I just wanted you for myself right? I didn't care about your feelings?"
        
        Even though he didn't want to admit it, the truth hurt him more than he hurt her. 
        
        Elise Gardner is the new girl in town. She's friendly to everyone she meets and doesn't like to judge a book by it's cover. At her new school she meets new friends, one of them being Daniel Cordova. He's the eye candy that catches Elise's eye but to her dismay, he has a girlfriend. But, don't think that Elise hasn't caught Daniel's eye as well. They become really close friends and tell each other everything. Soon that friendship is put to the test when Elise sees something she wishes she hasn't. Know that if she tells Daniel, it could ruin their friendship. She decides to tell him, but that all soon backfires...when Daniel doesn't believe her. 
        Will her and Daniel's friendship make it? And what happens when he finds out the truth, after what he's done to her (and more?)?
        
        The thing about the truth is that no matter how hard one tries to keep it in, it would eventually get out and when it does, it won't always have the most positive outtake.
