I look around myself, and all I see is gray... 16 year old Quinn Heart knew something was wrong. No one should ever feel as sad as she does every day... Finally, she figures out she was right. She’s diagnosed with depression, Bipolar Disorder. Just like her mother had been. Her mother had committed suicide when Quinn was only 13, and Quinn swore to herself that she would never follow suit and cause her loved ones the same pain she feels. Things are looking up when she begins to meet a new group of friends. But when Quinn finds out new things about her mother, she isn't sure she can cope. Not with knowing her mom wasn't as perfect as Quinn always thought she was. Finished in 2012

While in the E.R. at Mercy Hospital, Noah meets a strange boy by the name of Tyson, who seems to be a walking contradiction. On the outside he seems cold and distant, yet when he sees Noah in the waiting room with her hand bleeding, he comes over to help her and stays by her side the whole time. When they part that night, both think they'll never see each other again. But, when Noah goes back to school after summer break she finds out that Tyson is the new student. And more surprising still, he acts like he's never seen her before and treats her coldy. Confused, Noah tries to figure out what his deal is, and it does't help that they've been paired together for a class assignment that will take the whole year to complete. ((INITIAL DRAFT))
