Caroline Allen and Aaron Jacobs had been best friends since the first day of kindergarten. Inseparable from each other up until middle school, when Aaron got into football and started to climb the social ladder. Caroline was sad that she was losing her best friend, but she couldn't stop him from being happy, so she accepted that her friend was moving on and she needed to as well, until something changed. Not only did Aaron stop being Caroline’s friend, but in order to keep his place in the popular crowd, began bullying her, along with the rest of the jocks. They would make fun of her weight, which was above average until she made herself sick. Now, in their junior year at high school, nothing has changed. Aaron is with the popular crowd and still bullies Caroline and because of it, she became anorexic and changed everything about herself. When will the bullying stop? Will it ever? And will Aaron ever see how much damage his words actually cause?
