half agony half hope

"Butterflies float around from flower to flower, collecting pollen. That's what you are, Alice Macken, a butterfly that floats around from person to person collecting there feelings for you and in return leaving a print.You floated onto my tobacco, caterpillar heart and fluttered it, causing my love to erupt in one big show of colour and life. That's what you are Ali....colour and life."

Alice Macken is stuck in a hospital for self harm. Completely alone except for the plastic, fake, barbie dolls on the covers of the magazines she finds it hard. But one day, she meets Danny. A boy who is addicted to tobacco and dreams and is determined to show his butterfly that life isn't what she thinks it is.
