Buttercup "Marie" Lee is seventeen years old, arrogant, rebellious and witty. When she finds out that she is pregnant, she decides to keep the child much to the confusion of everyone around her.

William Holloway is the new kid in town who is optimistic, nerve-wreckingly calm and shocks the conservative town of Gateway Hill by revealing that he is bisexual.

When the paths of these two contrasting characters meet, change, revelation and understanding are introduced to these youngsters' lives. In a series of charming monologues, Marie tells the story of how she (attempts to) juggle her schoolwork, her relationships and her ego on top of her growing baby bump.

It's the last year of high school, and everything has changed . . . ***** After a summer spent in the Philippines, Lara Dela Cruz is eager to start her senior year and, most importantly, reunite with her three besties. But what she did not expect was to show up on the first day of school to all three of her friends now in relationships. Fighting for their attention, catching some new and confusing feelings for long-time frenemy James, and wading through the pressures of post-high-school plans all have Lara reeling. And to make matters worse, Lara's beautiful and untrustworthy cousin conveniently appears and wiggles her way right between her and James' budding relationship. Feeling like a third wheel in more ways than one, Lara must learn to accept that change is inevitable, love is complicated, and being the odd one out is sometimes where inner power is found.
