IN THE SUN

❝ IN THE SUN,
I FEEL AS ONE ❞

o. summary

— LINDSEY "LINDY" CLAYTON doesn't hate her life by any means, but she sure as hell can only tolerate so much of it after just eighteen years. With a dysfunctional family and goals that seem so out of her reach, her life appears to be taking her down the same, typical road everyone else in the world finds themselves strolling upon. That is, until she meets Kurt Cobain, who gives her the sudden hope that maybe, just maybe, life can be a whole lot different than she thought.
