They weren't supposed to meet. But life does that sometimes; it throws in a couple of new faces that bring you the utmost of joys in the most unlikeliest of places, and every now and then, you'll come across someone who changes you - someone who's genuine and wonderful and full of hope; someone who changes your perspective on the things that you had stored away in the cardboard box sitting in the dark corner of your closet, someone who opens up your eyes to new things; bright and beautiful things that you can't believe you hadn't seen before, someone who's iridescent. And once you meet them, nothing will ever compare.

"Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth." -Marcus Aurelius Every story has two sides, or in this case, seven. High school is filled with teenage angst, excitement, boredom, secrets, judgement, the occasional pregnancies, homework, and much more. Union Valley High is no different. But attending the same high school does not mean ending with the same outcome. See for yourself through the ultimate perspective of seven candidates: An artist, decorating the walls of abandoned [and not so abandoned] buildings during the secrecy that is night. A Brit, forced out of house and home, struggling to please a pretentious parent. A girl suffocating in the shadows of her older sister's perfection. A brat, who holds a thick mask to her face everyday, to avoid the complication of being herself. A blind girl, wishing someone could see past her ability /not/ to see, and love her all the same. A sister of three older brothers with personalities so loud, they drown out any thoughts she may have for herself. And a boy with a good heart and a sarcastic mouth, who wishes he could find his way in the world, but has no idea how to go about that. Seven souls, old and young, just trying to make their way through high school with minimal damage.
