Meet Sadie Taylor, currently a senior at East High. You can say she is the nerdiest student East High had ever had. She took either advanced placement or honor classes. Sadie always passed every class with an exceptional A. The students of East High ignore her and treat her as if she wasn't even there unless ... they needed her to do their homework. Or their 100,000 word essay that was coming up. Or some project that was due tomorrow. No one sincerely wanted to be her friend which was why she had none and was always alone. What will Sadie do when she catches the attention of the most popular boy at school? Meet Adam West, a 19-year-old who failed his classes senior year and has to retake them again. Not like that bothered anyone. He was East High's best quarterback. Girls threw themselves at him. Nothing could've been better. But when Adam receives a once in a lifetime chance to join the UCLA as their quarterback, everything is no longer the same. If he doesn't pass his classes this time around, he'll lose the opportunity to join UCLA. What will happen when Adam learns the identity of the biggest nerd at school?

All I wanted to do was get a pair of combat boots. Black ones. I walk into the shoe store then walk to the aisle with combat boots. I've been here so many times to stare at them that I have the aisle memorized. I'm Dylan, Dylan Daniels. My family isn't poor. If you could call it a family. It's Mom and I in a townhouse. It's just my mom is a workaholic and I'm lucky if I see her for a minute. Some eighteen year olds would get high or drunk every night. She's not my mom, she took me in when my parents got in a car accident. She tells me to call her mom. In my case I work at Roquefield Towers as a receptionist from 1:30-5:00. If I ever want to buy anything I have to pay for it. Including food, any food. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks. I walk to the Checkout Line, four people in front of me. I wait. When it's my turn, five men/guys in black clothing and black ski-masks walk in with guns aimed all directions.
