He gave me a long stare as if deciphering a puzzle. And then shook his head and walked pass me in the direction I was originally going in.

I turned and quietly watched as he disappered around the corner of the hall; leaving me alone in the hallway.

And in that one moment I realized that he's not as bad as the boy I had passed by in the hall for the past year.

And that behind that cold face there might just be a warm heart.

***

Meet Melody Reynolds.
The girl who people remember in time of need only. The friend who is almost always forgotten but is always there in the background. The person who knows everyone but who is known by very few.

Meet Adam Sinclair.
The boy in the back with the bruises. The classmate every student seems to stay clear off. And the only person who can help Melody save her family and more importantly herself.

Haunted by the mantra "I'm nobody," I echoed these words in my mind, feeling as though my entire existence revolved around catering to the happiness of others. Despite having friends, a constant undercurrent of self-doubt lingered, as if I were an anchor holding them back. In the shadow of my brother Adam's fame with the renowned band Three Days Grace, I was the family's black sheep, an outcast in our town. My academic prowess and hardworking nature seemed to count for naught, dismissed by my father as failure. Even my past relationship revealed a cruel truth - I was a mere experiment for my ex-boyfriend's infidelity. While my brother Adam basked in the heroics of our town, I felt cast aside, deemed a potential threat to other teens and shunned like a contagious disease. Despite my pleas for help falling on deaf ears for years, my existence seemed insignificant, unnoticed. The reflection in the mirror, one last look before I just contemplated ending it all, reflected a soul weary of pleasing others at the cost of my own emotions. With black lipstick, I scrawled a poignant question on the mirror: "Are you happy?" In the final, desperate act, as I pushed myself to the brink, a rush of relief mingled with the pain. Yet, as I succumbed to the darkness, a familiar voice called my name, disrupting the silence. Awakening to a hospital room, my feet tied to the bed, a blond-haired, blue-eyed figure lay by my side, a silent sentinel. Even in my darkest moment, he defied my wishes, standing vigil over the remnants of a life I sought to escape. The tangled web of emotions unfolds as I grapple with the unexpected second chance, questioning whether the bonds of love and resilience can conquer the shadows that once consumed me.

"Ahhhhh what did I just do?!" I screamed. This question wasn't just about the mirror, it was about tonight, and frankly this whole crush on Oliver. It was ridiculous, absurd, unorthodox, and worst of all, it felt like a part of my heart had been ripped out. I grabbed a small broom and dust-pan, kneeling down and sweeping up the glass-covered floor. And as I was walking to put the shards in the garbage, I took one last look at myself in the broken shards. I made eye contact with my mirrored image, and I swore a solemn and silent oath to myself, "Never again." The forming of those words from my mouth had created a newfound feeling of freedom. A numbing sensation that prevented my emotions from surfacing. I had promised myself to never be vulnerable like that ever again. ******* What if the food chain turned on us? This is the question that defined the life of teenage protagonist: Amara Finley and her best friend: Oliver Macleod. All plant-life had come to life in a supernatural phenomenon that everyone had begun to call the "Bloom", and for some strange reason the plants began to attack humans. Their life and their world is dominated by plants, and with what little hope humanity had left, they fight with the winged brigade in hopes to rescue the world. Why did this happen? What caused the plants to go ballistic on humans? Is the brigade all that it appears? Will Oliver ever see her as more than a friend? ******* Oliver Macleod is in shock, and in grief. His loved one is brutally taken away from him. He doesn't know what to do with himself. Feelings of rage and sorrow transform into doubt and unbelief. The loss of this loved one is so prominent that it compels him to seek answers about their death. The more he looks, the less he finds. He begins to question if they truly are dead, or if it was all just one massive cover-up. When secrets are discovered and questions are answered he realizes that the brigade is not all that it seems.

Aren't one sided crushes fun? NOT! 18 year old Melody Jenkins has spent the last 3 years of high school crushing on one guy, Jake Kensington, who sees her as no more than a sister from another mister and best friend. Not wanting to risk their friendship, Melody has kept her crush a secret and her emotions in check whenever she's around him... which is daily since they live on the same property. It's her senior year and she has made it through the past three years of high school with little social psychological trauma. That's excellent considering she goes to a school in Los Angeles where the majority of the bored students graduating will have executive paying jobs the moment they walk across stage. If all goes well, she will graduate as the valedictorian with multiple offers from colleges on the East Coast, far away from California. But when the health teacher announces a "special" project that requires students to be paired and live under the same roof for one week, Melody's world gets completely turned upside down. She is forced to spend time with someone totally opposite of her and frankly, she can't stand... or so she thought. One night of catching a glimpse of the softer side of Kyle Warner, the school's most popular and arrogant quarterback, has her heart pounding and her stomach doing flip-flops. But when Melody shows an ounce of affection toward Kyle, Jake discovers feelings of his own as he tries to protect his best friend from the guy he knows Kyle can be. As the project comes to an end, Melody goes to homecoming... will it be a night to remember, forget or both? Be advised, this contemporary Teen / Young Adult Romance story has some strong language and strong sexual connotation.
