Past

5 years ago, Nathan, Daley, Taylor, Melissa, Eric, and Jackson were all the best of friends. They had survived together for a month on a deserted island, and that brought them closer together than they could ever imagine.

When they were rescued, they had to go back to their junior year of high school. The first day back was easier than they thought it would be.

They answered questions together, they had classes together, they spent weekends together.

They knew they always had someone to trust with their feelings, and they always had someone to share in the good times as well.

Over the last years of high school, they experienced birthdays, proms, homecoming, breakups, getting back together, fights, make ups, and everything else you could imagine.

But finally, the day had come. Graduation was upon them, and they were all excited and terrified at the same time.

They were all going to different colleges, and they would have to experience being alone for the first time since the crash.

On the island, they knew they weren't in the real world, and at home, they were still protected by the strength the island gave them, but this would be their true test of strength.

How would they do making new friends, letting new people in? People always say they bad things bond people together. They were bonded for life, and now would be the time to test that bond.
