"Looks can be so decieving." And so they can be as Mia learns. Mia is an amazing chess player and beats every single living chess player her age. However, when she meets Josh, she melts. And pours her heart out to him, giving up her dream of chess. However, does he have the same thing in mind?
This is an original tale based on a true life story about how friendships, relationships and loyalties lie on the line when what brought these people together is about to tear them apart. What will Mia do when all the people she cares about want the same thing as her? Will she give up everything she's ever wanted? Or will she lose those friends she's never had?
"Josh - don't."
"I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing this for me."
"You're not going to get in my way."
Many will lose, few will draw, but only one will win.
And in the climactic finale, everything will end with...

He stops suddenly to finish his thoughts. "No one can make you feel like this. Or kiss you here...." He says as he kisses down my neck. I moan and he smirks pulling his face impossibly close to mine.

Ice To Meet You
"What else do you want me to say, Mia?" "Did you mean it?" There is a pause and I just-I feel exhausted, the kind that 12 hours of sleep hasn't been able to fix. "Hannah said I don't deserve to be loved, is that how you feel too?" She might not have said it in as many words but that's exactly what she meant. He takes my hand in his and kisses it. "Between the both of us-it's I who doesn't deserve to be loved." "Too bad you already are." "Please stop saying it!" he may not have screamed the words at me but he might as well have.

Little Sweet Dreamer
"Oh," he said, as my back hit the wooden wall. Damn it, of course. With nowhere to go, his arms locked me in between him and the wall. He stared down at me as he said, "So you're trying to piss me off?" His lips were surprisingly close to mine. No guy would ever be this close to me in real life, let alone me being able to handle it; I would've been so timid and afraid. But this was the dream world. I could speak and be as brave as I wanted to. "Yeah, I am," I said. "What are you gonna do about it?" He paused as his eyes looked between the two of mine. Then, he smirked and swiftly closed the gap between our lips. ~~ In a small town in New York, Hazel is your average quiet type.

This is not something she can control, nor something that's necessarily dangerous. It just happens. One second she's in darkness, the next second she happens to be in someone's dream. But, when she stumbles into a dream of a guy she never knew existed in her grade of 500 students, albeit his popular status, both her worlds get flipped upside down.Complete
