She knew that she might run into Kodiak, as he plays hockey and is still best friends with Mav. Now in her second year of college, Lavender is living on campus with her older brother and twin brother. She lost a part of her heart when she lost Kodiak. Spoiler alert, it wasn’t easy and never really happened. But then Kodiak’s family moved away and Lavender had to try to learn to cope without him. Only a kid himself, his strength and reassurance could help Lavender heal and calm down like no one else. For whatever reason, Kodiak was always there for her. Though it looks like Lavender has an easy life and is like a princess in the tower, she deals with both anxiety and PTSD after a traumatic experience in her childhood. Kodiak is a few years older than Lavender and her twin brother River, and he’s always been best friends with Lavender’s older brother Maverick.

Their fathers worked and played for the same NHL hockey team, and their mothers are also close friends. Lavender Waters and Kodiak Bowman grew up together and used to be close friends.
