Maggie doesn't understand romance. She doesn't think she ever will. She wants to, and she wants to have it in her life, mainly to fit in, but every time she tries it feels like something is wrong with her. She does try. She's talked to every boy, and even every girl in her school, but there's not a single person in her school she's interested in. With social expectation of needing to have a crush or boyfriend, Maggie has to choose whether to please her mother and not be happy herself, or be her true self, with a single friend her side and her what feels like the entire world against her.

Cold, calculated, and feared by everyone who walked through the doors. She ran this place with a tight grip, and she didn't tolerate mistakes. No one dared to cross her, not without consequences. And yet, every time their eyes met, something shifted, an unsettling pull that she couldn't quite explain. She didn't know what it meant, or why it unsettled her so much. But one thing was certain: the longer she stayed here, the more complicated everything would become...
