Lullabies
Summary
"Going insane, I suppose."
Thea Andrews has been through a lot in the past nine years of her life. At age 13, she was sent to go live in an insane asylum because her parents thought she was a burden. At age 13, she lost any sort of normal childhood and innocence she was supposed to have. And at some point along the way, she lost everyone who was supposed to be there for her and care about her- especially a certain Jack Barakat. Nobody knows for sure what happened between the two, but Thea does, and she's not entirely for sure if she can forgive him for leaving. Now that she's finally free from the cruelty of Newcastle Academy, Thea can finally start fresh and regain the life she lost all those years ago. Old memories from the past and old friends resurface, and just when she thinks she's got her life somewhat together, the last person she ever expected to see shows up and it takes everything Thea's got to keep from falling apart once more.
Then again, after you give someone the best parts of yourself, what do you expect to be left once they're gone?
