Adaline Wolk is very easy to get along with. She's kind, funny, goofy... maybe a little awkward here and there. She's got a heart bigger than her body. Once she warms up to someone, she'll talk like they're buddies. But since she's been teased by her fellow classmates, she's very selective about who she actually befriends. Adaline will be kind to anybody, no matter who they are or what they do. Even if they're in the form of the six-foot tall jerk named Nemo Kademan. Nemo Kademan is known to be a bit... rude. Still, everyone likes and adores him. And only he knows the real reason as to why he acts the way he does, and says the things he says. His friends aren't the best influence either. Nemo has been stuck in this negative mindset for so long that he's losing himself. Until he meets Adaline and finds out she isn't all that bad, and ultimately... finds himself.

"The moon's really beautiful, if you think about it," I blurted. "Yeah?" he asked, mild amusement and curiosity mingling in his voice. "Yeah," I confirmed. "It's just- there's something about the moon that's ethereal. I don't really know how to describe it, but it's a constant in life. You can't always see it, but you have to trust that it's out there somewhere. And when you can see it, it's all bright and shiny and overcomes the darkness." I paused, searching for the right words. "I don't know. I guess it's a reminder that there are good things out there, even if you can't see them... And it's cool to think that someone hundreds of miles away is staring at the exact same moon as you. It makes me feel not so alone in life." Turning my head, I saw him staring at me intently with a thoughtful look on his face. "Too deep for a Friday night?" I laughed nervously, feeling my face grow hot. And this was precisely why I didn't go to parties. He shook his head and seemed to snap out of his daze. "It was deep in a good way." *** SHE was quiet & left out.
