(AU) Calum Hood is musically famous. No, not the rockstar kind of famous--Calum hates that. In fact, he really hates talking to people and interacting with them in general, which leaves him in quite the awkward situation with his fans. But his particular condition doesn't stop him from doing what he loves: making music. 
His life makes a complete turn when he becomes the subject of a freelance photographer. Surprising himself, he decides to finally step out of his comfort zone and talk to her (more like to yell at her actually). As he slowly lets her in, she manages to help him assimilate to the outside world ... while he shows her what it's like to really smile.

Ella is falling apart trying to live a "perfect" high school life. Then she meets Ren, who can see past her scars. Suddenly perfection isn't her only option. ***** Ella Volkov is a gifted music student, but she's depressed and starting to crack under the pressure of high school. Her overbearing father won't even let her choose what instrument she plays. Then she finds herself alone at a party with Ren, her best friend's crush. She'd always thought he was rude, but after that night he's all Ella can think about. Now she's trapped. If Ella dates Ren, it will ruin her friendship with Jenny. But if she stays true to Jenny, she's losing the one person who can see past her scars. It's up to Ella to decide if she will forge her own path, or stay in the "perfect" box designed for her...
