The night before school starts is always spent with two people. The first one has flawless brown hair and freckles. She's wearing a sundress and is wearing that one denim jacket I saw at the mall but couldn't afford and cute shoes with perfect white laces in pretty little bows. Every boy has a crush on her and her pretty little figure because she's nice but not too nice and funny but not the most hilarious, she's perfect but not enough to be fake. She's smart, on the honor roll, and skinny. The second one is ugly. Her clothes are old and stagnant on her body. They all fit too big but some part of her is proud when the triple zero jeans leave room around her hips. She is too thin. Her gaunt figure turns heads. Her fingers are blue and her face is a permanent demented frown that pulls down the rest of her eyelids and her hair isn't short because she likes it that way it's short because her hair falls out and everything about her is sick, and she is ugly. .

"You're not a burden," he said. "OK," I said, again, trying to play it off like I didn't care. I wasn't sure how much longer I could keep up the façade. I could feel the tears banging against the barricade just behind my eyelids, the sobs clawing at the walls of my throat... they were demanding to be let out. "Don't shut me out," he begged in a desperate whisper. *** If only the guys in Ivy's life could be as in love with her as she is with them. Ever the tomboy to keep herself from getting hurt, Ivy knows it's safer to yearn from afar than it is to love up-close. What happens when a new guy shows up at her high school and starts to treat her as more than a friend? What happens when she goes off to college? Will she be liberated? Loved? Or is she condemned to a life on the sidelines, always the buddy, never THAT GIRL?
