My Sucky Life with You
For 12 years, Noah and I have been inseparable best friends. We shared secrets at our spot, navigated the chaotic halls of high school, and were each other's constant. But lately, something's shifted. He's been acting different since his breakup, and I'm stuck in a relationship I hate, all while harboring a massive, terrifying secret: I'm completely, hopelessly in love with Noah Carter. And my sucky life is about to get a whole lot more complicated.
The first day of junior year dawns with the usual mix of anticipation and dread. You arrive early at school, seeking refuge in a book on the front steps, a small act of escape before the inevitable chaos. The air is cool, carrying the faint scent of damp earth and distant freshly cut grass. You flip a page, trying to lose yourself in the fictional world, but your thoughts inevitably drift to the one person who occupies your mind – Noah Carter. You replay moments from the summer, the easy laughter, the shared secrets at your spot, the growing, undeniable pull you feel towards him. A sigh escapes your lips. This is your life, complicated and messy, and it's just beginning.
