You Should Smile More

This is the misunderstood story of two smitten teenagers.

Bella- A fifteen year old girl on the first day of her freshman year, hoping she would find her true love like all the girls in the books she reads. When she heads to school on the first day, she'd never expect what she finds.

Quentin- A dark, self-harming boy, that never expects to fall in love. After seeing his parents relationship crumble at the age of two, and seeing his dad slowly become nothing, and all of his mothers relationships fail.

Catherine- Bella's newest best friend that quickly becomes jealous with this new found crush and slowly begins to distance herself from Bella in the following year. Everything seems ok until Lyndsy, the new girl comes along.

Lyndsy- The new girl that steals Catherines attention. As she gains feelings for Catherine, everything between Catherine and Bella fall apart.

Bella's Family- Her best support system.

This entire story is true. Everything you're going to read is my life. The relationship between Bella, Catherine, Lyndsy, and Quentin happened.

I am Bella.

Quentin is my boyfriend.

Catherine WAS my best friend of two years before she became jealous.

Lyndsy 'replaced' me.

My family is there for me.

I will ONLY be changing the last names. Their first names are real. I will be changing my school location and teachers names for the safety of myself and the others in this story.
