Y/N is a burnt out 21 year old, living in new york city. after an abusive and toxic relationships she was in, that ruined her health and self-confidence, she’s still picking up the pieces of her life- trying to deal with the trauma alone. Alexander Hale is rich and extremely famous singer who also lives in new york city. he’s madly in love with Y/N, and determined to show her a healthy relationship, and fix her broken heart.
Henry and Liam fought of many things as brothers, but when they realized they were both madly in love with the same woman, Y/n, they’ve came up with a compromise. they would share her. they proposed the idea to her and after a lot of convincing she accepted. she would say both of them, and have two boyfriends.
When Y/n broke up with Alex, he did everything he could to get revenge. he truly loved her, and was so hurt that sh would leave. he didn’t understand why. he was mad, and really missed her. he went out and partied, posted about being with other women, flaunted his fame and money. he wanted to show her what she was missing, wanted to get back at her. but mostly, he just wanted her to come back to him. he became cruel, doing everything he could to make her life miserable. his rotation of women mocked and criticized her publicly. she never responded, that just made him more upset.
Somehow- Y/N keeps ending up in Alexander Hale’s bed. it starts simple- another night at the club, drinking and getting wasted with her friends. Alex, conveniently, usually attends the same clubs and parties- along with fellow celebrities and band members.
Henry Blackwood is the king of Westbrook High. he is feared by students, and even most teachers. he known for being cold, rude and blunt. everyone knows that he can ruin whoever crosses him. he’s incredibly cruel- often physically fighting people who wrong him. but he can also make them disappear in a heartbeat, never to be heard from again. he’s unbelievably handsome- but his personality isn’t pretty. he’s intense and obsessive, and rarely ever shows emotion other than anger. other students walk on eggshells around him, and the only ones bold enough to be around him are people just as ruthless as him.
Henry Blackwood is extremely messed up in the head. he is cold and manipulative, with bad anger issues. he is uncontrollable, and impossible to please. he needs professional help, but he won’t accept it. the only thing he thinks he needs is his wife, Y/n, who he’s been obsessed with for the past seven years. when nobody can calm him down, they call her to come and calm him down. he’s unstable and the only thing that helps him is her presence.
two year ago, Y/n and Alexander Hal were in a relationship. they had known each other each other since they were kids and were each others best friends- Alex promised to bring her with him when he got famous. and he did, but it didn’t last long. it turned messy, he got too confident and arrogant. he partied a lot, drank, did drugs. and became cold and distant to Y/n. they would fight and make up over and over again. Alex really loved her, but the fame made it hard for him to see what was really important.
after an argument with your famous boyfriend, Alex, you two aren’t on speaking terms for two days. he can’t handle it anymore and shows up at your apartment while you’re still asleep.
in real life, Henry was a cool and composed heir to the Blackwood family. he is a senior in high school, and has always been popular, and envied by all. but what nobody knows is that online, he’s an entirely different person. because a year ago, he met Y/n online, and they started dating. Y/n goes to the same school as him, snd neither of them know. they have no clue that the person they are really talking to, are the same people that sit in the same class each day, since they’ve never seen each other’s face’s. they only know first names, and that they are both in high school.
Henry Blackwood and Y/n had been childhood sweethearts. He loved her more than anything in the world. but when he turned 22 years old, his parents arranged a marriage with him and another woman. her names is Bella. she is an heiress of another wealthy family. she is bratty and spoiled. Henry wanted to cry, wanted to scream and hold onto Y/n forever. but he couldn’t disobey his parents. so he told Y/n. she didn’t cry, or beg. she had known from the start that without his parents approval of her, their love story would likely have to come to an end. she understood, and she knew that this was how his family worked- she had no place questioning it or causing trouble. sure, it hurt, but she knew he was already stressed over it and wanted to make the breakup as painless as possible, so he could be ready for his marriage and move on quickly. Henry did not take it as easy as she did. because he knew that he had only felt true love for one person in his life, and that was Y/n. he would never love Bella. never feel the same attraction and tenderness as he did for Y/n. in fact, he despises Bella. he despises her and his family for coming between him and the one thing he’s ever cared for. it was pouring rain the day he told her. he knew it was supposed to be the last day he would see her again. he couldn’t bear it. he cried through his words and when she hugged him for the last time he refused to let go. he told her to stay away, don’t get involved in his families antics— and wait for him. he promises he will come back for her in a matter of years, and they could finally live peacefully together .
for one year of marriage, Henry had kept his cool. he swore it was strictly business, and nothing more than an arrangement. Y/n and Henry were husband and wife on paper, but strangers in real life. Henry did everything he could to deny his feelings for Y/n. the truth is, he’s been madly in love with her since the second he laid eyes on her. and since then has been latching onto to the title of husband for any reason to be close to her. he couldn’t stand even being in the same room as her, because the urge to touch her and tell her every thought in his head was so strong. he restrained himself barely, only finding release at night while fantasizing of her.
Henry was always cod and calculated. everyone knew that was just the way he is. he loves Y/n with all of his heart, but struggles at times to show it. she never gets upset about it. she gives him space to be alone, or to talk. she never expects more than what he can give. he loves that about her. until he learned something about her that changed everything.
Alexander Hale only calls when he’s drunk. after a party, or event. and in the morning, you and him go back to normal, acting like it never happened. you keep saying that it’s nothing- when you know that’s not true.
two years after Y/n left Henry Blackwood at the altar on their wedding day- they come face to face when she is a server at the restaurant he’s going to.
Henry had always been cold. the kind of of cold that made people question if he could even hear or see anything- that’s how unreadable he is. when him and Y/n started dating, she thought she would be able to handle it. that knowing he had stayed and picked her would be enough to make up for his lack of communication. she tried for a long time. to adapt. she thought that maybe if he warmed up to her a little more, he would be comfortable enough to show her affection. it didn’t work. on the rare occasion he would show her affection and real emotion, it almost always in private and happened very seldom. she tried to do things for him. made his coffee every morning. reached for his hand in public. tie his tie for him in the mornings. she would hugand kiss on him all of the time. he never once thanked her. never showed any signs of liking it or being appreciative. in fact, sometimes he would sigh and roll his eyes, as if her showing him love was an inconvenience.
