My name is Amelia Rose Bowyer. My mom chose it because she loved the sound, she always told me it seemed like a name a princess would have. She was amazing, I was lucky to have her. But she died three years ago, when I was only fourteen. Dad was never the same after that.

My dad's not a bad person really. He just drinks too much, that’s the problem. He’s gone for the whole day, half for work and the rest of the time he spends in the bar. And when he comes home; he’s drunk, confused and mad.  He's always mad at something, but it’s mainly me. I'm not smart enough, sporty enough, pretty enough; I never do anything right, I'm never good enough to be his daughter…

And that's why he hits me.

"Talk to you about it?" I asked with a dark laugh. "it's not as easy as you make it sound," "Yes, Garret! Talking! You know what that is right? It's very easy! You just open your mouth and let the words that are in your head, come out of your mouth." "It's not that simple," I fought down emotions that were building up. "Yes, it is! See, i'm doing it right now!" "No-it's not!" "Yes!" "No!" "Yes! just talk, dang it!-" "You just expect it to be easy to talk about my dead parents?! About how guilty I feel for not visiting their grave for the past 11 years?! I didn't even realize how long it's been, I had pretty much forgotten about them for 11 years! Do you know what kind of guilt is eating at me right now!" I shouted in angst, my hands grabbing at the clothes on top of my head and pushing it into myself, wanting to just be shielded away from everything I was feeling, guilt, sadness, from thinking about more people I've lost in my life. Before I could even react, Keeley's tiny arms wrapped themselves around my torso. ~

Amelia's two best friends have personality in bucket loads, so why is her and her friends existence ignored in school? Her next door neighbour Ollie Turner couldn't be anymore different, he has the hearts of every girl in school apart from Amelia and her friends. So what happens when Ollie finally notices her and they get put in the same mechanical engineering class together? Throw in illegal racing, lots of trouble, road trips and love? Could it be a total disaster or a miracle? --------------------------- "What?" I ask him. "why are you here?" He questions. "I'm I'm this class, this is my other class I was telling you about on Saturday, oh do you remember Saturday? When we hung out and spoke all night, oh I guess not, since we're not friends" I spat at him. A flash of hurt appears in his eyes. "Look I'm sorry, the boys wanted to speak to you guys today but I thought you'd be better off without us" what did he mean? That made no sense. "Save it, you knew we'd ruin your reputation since we're outcasts and you're popular and all" he raked a hand through his hair at my statement. "Look, it was scary how fast we got along, it took me months to befriend the lads and with you... and the girls, it was so easy, I won't lie though I wasn't sure how people would react if we hung out but then I realise none of them people mean anything to me, they're nobodies" ***FOLLOW ME FOR RESTRICTED CHAPTERS***
