Broken Until You

[COMPLETED] Autumn Cross is now in 12th grade at her new school, Willington High, with only one goal in mind: passing the 12th grade and going to a good college. But her world changes when she meets Ryder Becker.

Ryder Becker is one of the most popular boys in all of Willington High. I mean, all the boys want to be him and all the girls worship him. He could care less about grades because he knows that football is what's going to get him into a good college. But his carelessness in grades changes when he meets Autumn.

Not only does Autumn get partnered up with Ryder for the biggest class project of the whole year, she also lives on the same street as him. In the beginning she thinks it's a total curse, but maybe it's a blessing in disguise...

They both may pretend on the outside that they are fine, but truth be told, they are both broken. The way his smile doesn't match his sad eyes draws her towards him, and the scars and bruises on her skin draw him towards her. A cure for your sadness could be another person, right? Well put her broken pieces together with his, and you have cracked the code. Love could put their broken pieces back together.

As we sat on the field, I looked up at the view above us. How beautiful the way the glowing stars danced and shimmered across the night sky. Maybe even mother nature smiled at such an extraordinary view like tonights.

Taking my attention away from the stars, I looked over and saw that Ryder had been staring at me for some while.

A sky full of stars and he was still staring at me.

"Why are you staring like that?" I asked him.

"You scare me, Autumn." Ryder admitted.

"How come?"

He looked down at the grass beneath us then back at me and gulped. "Because I want to tell you secrets I'm too scared to admit to myself."
