Memory lane

She was his best friend; he was her best friend until the accident one drunken mistake can wreck a life.

When Xavier lost his sister, he went into a state of depression and so did his parents but he blamed himself because he knew he drank too much, but he insisted on driving her home after her boyfriend had broken up with her at the party.

He had lost half of himself; he had lost his twin. Xenia was always peppy and free-spirited. Xavier knows that the crash was not an accident; He knew someone had timed and staged that accident and he was determined to find out who.

Even with being drunk, he knew that no one was supposed to be on that road so late that was why he drove there. He had been in some illegal activity in his sophomore and junior year of high school and it had caught up with him.

Even with having loaded parents, they have come nowhere near finding Xenia's killers.

Xavier blames himself but he also blames Conner for his sister's ex-boyfriend, if he wasn't cheating on her he wouldn't have had to break up with her so he would have brought he home and not him. Even though Xenia died Conner just looked relieved, he didn't mourn or even show a bit of sadness so that raised suspicions. Why wasn't he at least sad they were dating for two years?

Xavier had been to countless therapists to get the guilt to go away and see the accident from a different perspective. At school he is praised for being The White Enterprise's heir at first he loved it and basked in the glory but after the accident, he stopped. He and his other two friends Xander and Xavion are known in school as the triple X, they are also his right-hand men, Xander was a hacker and Xavion was to be a shareholder in his company. They are playboys who are seen with a different girl every hour of the day, they had dated most of the girl population of the school and every girl throw themselves at them but Marissa is the worst of them she only dates for money and popularity. While Xavion and Xander were playboys Xavier felt the need to focus on his studies.

Xavier, Xander, and Xavion all had something in common; they are all broken. At a young age, Xander's parents were murdered right in front of him, Xavion got kidnapped drugged, and rapped and Xavier killed his sister. They are all broken but some people deal with problems differently they can forget but they can't forgive.

He had flaws but didn't like to admit it. After getting over Xenia's death he got cocky, arrogant, and cold. He distanced himself from everyone. He rarely went to parties and only talked to his friends.

He couldn't wait to leave high school go to college and take over the company, he and his friends might look dense but they were all taking AP classes. The only thing keeping him going through school is the fact that he wanted the be the CEO of his family business, Xenia had always told him that he would be a good owner so that is what he wants, he wants his sister proud.

They always get looked down on when it comes to their academics but they were one of the smartest students in the school. His friend has dated most of the school's population but they found no interest in any of them only two girls called Sasha and Kelly. They were what you would consider nerds they pass every class, hasn't been seen at any parties or social gatherings and they wear baggy clothing. They always hang out with another girl but she is almost always in a hoodie covering her face. Zander and Xavion have this theory that the more girls they date the more Sasha and Kelly will notice them and actually talk to them but Xavier thinks that is some fucked up theory.

Brielle is an extraordinary girl she grew up with her abusive father, she didn't know where her mother was because she ran away as soon as she couldn't take any more beatings. What Brielle couldn't get was why she left her four-year-old daughter alone to die. Which parent much less a mother leaves their child to die?

Her parents were technically still married because they did not get a legal divorce. She was led to believe that she was the reason her mother left and that she deserved the abuse and it was going to make her a strong and successful businesswoman when it came time to take over the company.

One day in the middle of her torture session the basement doors came tumbling down as police rushed inside and cautioned the father while cuffing him. Then her mother came rushing in with pain and regret evident in her eyes as the paramedics took her daughter to the hospital.

The doctors told her mother that if she had reached an hour later, she would have died.
