Seventeen year old, Jacob Rivers, has been bottling and hiding his problems for more of his life than he can bother to remember. He looks normal, he fits in; he's practically invisible to everyone else. Of course, like everyone else, he has friends. And only his closest friend knows his issues: Drew Cross. Drew grew up in the same neighborhood with Jacob and they attended the same schools together all their life. Tenth grade is the first time Jacob snapped, when a girl that attended their school broke one of Jacob's valued possessions; his heart. Breaking his mind and his sanity along with it. Jacob caught her cheating. Jacob went to her house one day, wanting to surprise her by showing up, to see her in her room, on her bed, committing acts most vile and grotesque. Jacob's mind spread along a sheet of blackness and his vision faded as he blacked out.
