Trust Me

In the forsaken world they all live in now, Carly Nagisa knew that there were so many people out there, people who had hidden pasts and backgrounds who had yet to be interviewed. Yet she found herself pining for the coldest, cruelest, most beautiful kingin the world, something the world would loath to accept because of her existence.
Jack Atlas was the King of Turbo Duels, but after an accident that left him gravely injured, he disappeared from the public, who ruthlessly scrutinizes his every move as if their lives depended on his existence. Being a reporter, she had to get the truth out of everyone, but she realized that not everyone would want to reveal what they went through to get to the top. She, from a poor background, would never want to go back to the place she had been born into, and she knew that Jack would never want to return either.
Since she was just a reporter, nothing could be done if they were going to be more than acquaintances. After spending time, one would get to know the other a lot better, and Carly knew that deep down, Jack had felt the knives of guilt stab him over and over again. She had been interviewing so many people that she had never taken the time to notice her own pain. Then again, she had been too busy learning about the Signers and the Arcadia Movement to notice anything else around her.
She wanted him to know that there was someone who knew his pain, who thought of the same mistake everyday in the midst of duels and the cold indifference of society, just so she too would know her plsce in the world, just as he knows his place now. In all of the world anyone he had to trust, she wanted him to trust her.
