Clair Jess is a normal girl except for a few minor things. She has more piercings than anyone at Zara High, she owns two cats, two snakes, and a bearded dragon, she's a lesbian, and she has eyes that are pitch black like tar. She has been assigned as the freak of ZarSwallow Hills, the pathetic town that she called home. She has a normal everyday routine:
She wakes up, gets dressed, care for the animals, go to school, come home, eat dinner, care for the animals again, do homework, shower, sleep, repeat.
She has very little time for herself. She has a problem with hurting herself. Things just seems to get worse when a new girl moved in next door.
Could this be a start of a friendship or rivailry? Only time could tell.
But one thing is for certain...
