Troubled Youth

1990 is the beginning. Jared is in college and hasn't figured himself out yet. He finds himself nervous and shy about things he shouldn't be. He meets an opinionated girl who doesn't give too many details about her past but is all about chasing down the future. She pushes him to try things, to explore, to figure himself out. She inspires feelings in Jared but she wants nothing to do with them, only to be his friend.
The two of them are just kids trying to make their way in the world, trying to figure out who they are. From that fall semester in 1990 when they met they would have never known the curves life would throw at them and how they were going to handle it.
