"I'm gonna marry you someday." If she was trying to help me get my breath, that was not the way to do it. I choked. "What?" All of a sudden she looked scared. "I mean, I'm not like, in love with you or anything, it's just, it's on my adventure list, so I have to do it." She looked down. She was embarrassed. Little did she know, that was the single best thing she could have said to me. That was exactly what I'd been waiting to hear since the day I met her. She was the love of my life. But, being a 13 year old boy, I didn't tell her any of that. Instead I asked, "What's an adventure list?" She looked relieved to have something to talk about (she wasn't quiet very often), and went 90 mph. "Oh it's this thing I made up, where I write down all the things it would be super cool or weird to do before I die, so that I could look back and it won't have been a boring life." I smiled. "Like a bucket list?" "No!" she looked offended. "Its much cooler than a bucket list, cause none of them will ever happen. Like, ever. So its more exciting than a bucket list, more out there." I was confused. "Why would you make that if you won't ever do them? That just seems kinda, I don't know, sad." She pondered for a moment. "Well, to me, it's more exciting that way if one of them happens. You make them super crazy, so you aren't disappointed if they don't happen, but it's super awesome if they do. It's just fun to dream, and to have all these maybe-adventures."

"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. In a school full of clichés, she falls perfectly under the category of "nerd" and has her own little nerdy group of people she loves to hang around. They respect the fact that she's non-verbal. The thing that plagues her is her ability to go through anybody's and everybody's dreams which has a nasty side effect--she lost her ability to speak in the real world. 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.
