I never thought that I, of all people, would end up falling in love with someone. But damn, did I fall hard. He was quiet, mysterious, kind, and caring. I didn't want to trust him. I had too much on my plate. He never stopped trying with me. I told him I was inconvenient for him, yet he pursued in utter blindness. It was slightly annoying as to how much he cared, but I loved it. Neither of us knew what would happen. And we both never thought it'd come to this. It weakened me completely, but I had to keep going. I couldn't let it ruin what I had. I'm Rose, and this is my story.

schiz·o·phre·ni·a: a long-term mental disorder of a type involving a breakdown in the relation between thought, emotion, and behavior, leading to faulty perception, inappropriate actions and feelings, withdrawal from reality and personal relationships into fantasy and delusion, and a sense of mental fragmentation. In which Vic Fuentes is a twenty-one year old man diagnosed with schizophrenia living within a psychiatric hospital, and Kellin is an obnoxious twenty year old burnout who somehow finds himself in Vic's room every afternoon.

Being stripped of trouble is easier said than done, especially when it's doubled. Despite not knowing of each other's existences, Kellin Quinn and Vic Fuentes have the power to wreak havoc in almost every place, and on almost every person. Little does their new home, a Christian boarding school for troubled teens, know what chaotic mess they just might have created by assigning both boys as room mates.

Three years. that's all it's taken for Vic Fuentes to lose hope in the guy he once loved. Kellin Quinn, now 24, is pursuing his dream and love of music, but times are hard for them both. Vic, who still does therapy has not moved on since that morning he awoke to find no Kellin in his bed. Kellin though, he was long gone. Now in a steady relationship with Oliver Sykes, Kellin's mind hasn't slipped back to Vic, not yet anyways. But it will.

you're the blood in my veins.
