✨series synopsis💞
alexandria “dria” dalla costa wasn’t the same girl she was 3 years ago. she was still a free spirit, yes, and as an amateur creative, she would always be searching for that next “big thing” - writing, content-creating, acting. but she didn’t need the booze or the clubs anymore. she didn’t need the comforts of someone she barely knew, or the potential for feelings she didn’t understand to irreversibly ruin her life.
of course, somewhere in the middle of dria's journey across Europe, one situationship did end up shattering her life into a billion pieces. but she was in a better place now, she had learned from her mistakes, and she could prioritize her career AND coexist with her global pop-star ex in Los Angles.
it couldn’t be that hard.
it shouldn’t have been that hard.
it was that hard.
because her ex was none other than meret manon bannerman.

✨authors note💞
manon is just… like I’ve never really had a bias that I was 100% fixated by before her. EVER. so I guess you could say that this is my way of taking that insterest and channeling it into something slightly meaningful?
I’m almost finished with the prologue - which should be posted sometime before the new year - so if anybody's interested in reading it or the rest of this series, let me know and I'll add you to my taglist.
happy fanfic reading!
