Julian Garcia had always been on the outskirts of popularity. Ever since his mother died, and his father's neglect, it was never easy to fit in anymore. That was until Mark Daniels.
Even though Mark Daniels had a terrible life at home, with an abusive, deadbeat of a father out of his life, and his mother dating other deadbeat junkies, he had a great popularity status. He had a lot of friends, and was a star football player in Rosedale High.
Their history of knowing eachother had never been great, since Mark had severely bullied Julian in middle school. But the more they bump into eachother, the more attached they get.
