Rylee Lennon, a force to be reckoned with. The girl everyone knew as the smart one, the funny one, sometimes even the pretty one. But always, she was the happy one. 

That's why when the news of her suicide attempt reaches the halls of Ridgefield High it was a hard pill for everyone to swallow. Most didn't even believe it. 

Why would they? The girl had a permanent smile on her face, quick to help out anyone and quick to crack a joke. 

So it's brushed aside, just the workings of sick rumours. But Cade Nolan doesn't believe that, the handsome boy noticed the girl he once despised when she returns and he's the only one who can see her for what she really is. 

Cade can see she's drowning. He can see she's screaming but no one can hear her. 

Except for him.

Nolan, an unapproachable guy who ignores the existence of all his schoolmates, sleeps in all of his classes. Normally, this wouldn't be Chelsea Arnold's problem--she does her best to pay attention in class and attends gym like a good, normal student. Unfortunately, she just so happens to be his assigned desk partner in many classes. She's frequently forced to wake him in English class and ends up earning the unofficial title of Nolan's Wake-up Alarm--a title that nobody in the entire school covets. The last thing she wants is to interact with him more than she absolutely has to. One day, their gym teacher sends her to bring him back to class, which he always skips for some reason. When she accidentally shines her flashlight in his sleeping face, it triggers a chain of events that gradually intertwines their lives together. It's hard to be a normal student when you start befriending the school oddball. It doesn't help that he has more secrets than the Big Ben has stairs. ----- Complete.
