"Melody, would you please go out with me?" He said, with big eyes staring up at me, eyebrows raised, lips turned down slightly at the corners. "A-are you joking?" I splutter, caught off guard by the question asked by the boy I have considered my nemesis since the innocent age of 12. "You think I would be kidding about something like this?" He questions innocently, but he doesn't fool me. I can see that demonic glint in his eye... *** Melody Summers would be considered a geek, her best friend and cousin, Emma Maurice, would be seen as a pretty, popular chick and her enemy since childhood, Cade Myres would be viewed as the school's bad boy. Melody doesn't need a queen Bee to destroy her life's hopes and dreams, Cade Myres seems to exist for just that purpose, Myers appears hell-bent on making Melody's life a nightmare. What doesn't help is that Melody and Emma's friendship always seems to be on its way to breaking. How will Melody deal with Cade Myres' insensitivity and Emma Maurice's sensitivity?
