I Can't For The Life Of Me Remember The Name

So, I recently started a new story (because NONE of the ones I'm already working on seem to be holding my attention lately) only to sit down and start reading a story yesterday that already uses a major theme from the story I'm writing. Not that such a thing is unexpected, mind you, I just would have preferred if it hadn't been something that's currently going up.

So, while I'm moping about that, I decided to read a bit. Except, I can't find the story I wanna read. Can ya'll help me?

I don't remember the title or author, or even the main character's name at the moment. What I do remember is that they were attending school via the internet, had long red hair they usually kept in a braid, and ended up being interested in one of the people they had recently hurt -- hence being under house arrest.

Anyone able to remind me of what story this was?
