I did not plan on stumbling into the middle of a movie shooting. I did not plan on commenting how poor the acting of the lead female was. And I most definitely did not plan on finding myself speaking the lines in her place, opposite none other than Adrian Carter, the teenage heartthrob of Hollywood. But if anything in this universe ever went according to my plan, then the lead protagonist in the horror movie I was watching wouldn't have died by opening the damn door when I clearly asked her not to. But oh well, problems seemed to be attracted to me like the opposite ends of the magnets. *** Addison Woods is a seventeen year old who has a strong passion for acting. Being the daughter of the world's most renowned movie-set and graphics designer, she has always been in touch with this industry all her life. So what happens when, after losing a bet she is asked to spend a night in the spooky mansion, where she finds herself speaking the lines of the lead female instead? But if you think that she becomes a star and her dream comes true so easily, you're dead wrong. Because Addison never liked it easy. So, will this incident set her life straight, or will it actually turn it upside down? Read on to find out! ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

Meet Alyssa Bent, she's a nerd. But not your typical one. She likes to read, but her world doesn't totally revolve around books. She's not shy nor does she stutter when someone tries to corner her. She can stand up to anyone provided it doesn't involve attention. Attention is the only thing that scares her, and like always, there's a reason behind it. Maintaining a balance of grades and producing comebacks with sarcasm dripping from each word isn't the only talent she possesses. Enter Aaron Pelt, the most popular boy at Gradient High. Girls fawn over him. Well, who wouldn't? He's the star soccer player, after all. With the looks no less than a model, he has no problem maintaining his status on the social ladder. He maintains a cool aura around him all the time. They both go to Gradient High, a school that is divided into two social groups: the popular ones and the nerds. The popular ones are the wealthy snobs and the nerds are the ones who practically are their slaves. At Gradient High, these two groups can never get along! Like Ever! But who knew that the most popular guy and the nerd would actually be best friends? That's right! Alyssa and Aaron have been best friends since their diaper days. But at school, they are forced not to acknowledge each other's presence because if they did, Aaron's reputation might suffer and Alyssa may be subjected to something she hates the most: attention. While Aaron may not know, the reason why Alyssa hates attention might be even more than she lets him believe. A reason that might even force her to throw away her future dream. So will Aaron be able to break through the walls and push her out even when he has the pressure of popularity and the school status weighing him down? Get ready to expect the unexpected. You might want to change your definition of clichè after reading...... #1 Humour- 08.01.16 (Cover by: -infinities) *NOT EDITED SO KINDLY BEAR WITH ME!
