Reese Bailey is sad; but if you would look at her you wouldn't be able to tell. Reese has a problem with getting close to people, ever since her best friend Peyton moved in sixth grade she just clung to anyone who was a semi-good friend; but every single one ended up leaving her, and Reese is sick of it. Since about seventh grade Reese has been struggling with anxiety; she can't even go outside and take a walk by herself in fear that people will look at her and say things about her, I mean, that's how it's been since elementary school; she's always been a joke people always laughing and pointing, if that stuff happens so much it eventually sinks in. So now we're in grade 8 and Reese is determined to make her last year of middle school her year. This year, Reese got a confidence boost, well sort of; she can talk to her crush without freezing up; that's an improvement right? Connor Nikoles, Reese has had the biggest crush on him since fifth grade; it started to go away in sixth grade, but in the beginning of seventh grade he asked her out on a dare and those feelings came back; and when she found out that it was a dare it hit hard. Silly her, thinking someone actually cared.
But what if Connor starts to care?
