Butterfly, Butterfly is the name of the Americans. Butterfly, weak and flimsy. After the Bomb Treaty was broken, America has been a distort, mutant wasteland.
For Mindy, this is a disaster. No posts on Tumblr, no more videos on Youtube, and no more make-up tutorials for her fans on Instagram! That was her life, how to make her followers and fans "beautiful like her". She was beautiful and she knew it. She was "flawless" and she knew that for a "fact". Her boyfriend okay too, I guess. When the wasteland hit, Mindy was in for some trouble, some BIG trouble.
Now for Ross, this was a different kind of loss. His perfect life was ruined. He was a star football QB, had the prettiest girlfriend, had A's and B's, and a ready college scholarship. But that all changes when the Wing Snatchers (nuclear bombs) comes. He just wants his family, friends, and life back. He was strong, but is he strong enough?
Rose, the outcast. Even with her not fitting in, her life is okay at least. She is an orphan, but had a decent school life. She had outcast friends but never very close relationships. When the bombs rain down, she had only lost few things. She was strong and could handle a gun. She also had some fallout experience... (thank you Fallout franchise!). She was going to survive, she knew that for a fact.
When their fates meet, they realize the truth to make it end. To get to North Carolina, the only state to not be bombed so all the other countries can take slaves and resources. They could die, but really, what do they have to lose?

Loving the Enemy
Dear Olive, I hate you. I hate that you were born and that your human and have a face. I hate that you live next door to me and I hate that I can't sleep at night because the thought of you has forever left a vivid image creased in the back of my mind. And most of all, I hate that you hate me. Hate, Everest Since the first grade when Olivia Kingston and her family moved in right across the street from Kyle Everest, he had believed to have instantly hated her. (At least thats how he tells the story) And maybe it was just because of the mere fact of her existence, or maybe it was that time she ate the last fruit snack at lunch, or let's not forget, in fifth grade she stole his partner in crime, being his twin sister Madeline. Now being 17 years old Kyle Everest still holds this unknown resentment against his next door neighbor Olivia Kingston, and torches her in any possible way he can, but what would happen when Olivia finally gets sick of letting Kyle torcher her unexplainably? Everything would change in the matter of one day when Olivia accidentally gets them both locked in the principals office in search of the same thing: The truth. But while staying together in a cramped room with no phones and surviving off nothing but the secret stash of their principal, while the entire schools is off on spring break, secrets will be told and feeling will unravel. And let's not forget, hate letters will be sent. This book may seem light and fun but it has some mature scenes and dark thoughts that I'd suggest for viewers 16+Complete

Love with strings detached
I put on a show only for him in front of hundreds of people. I bring one hand up to my hair flicking them to the other side, trailing that hand down to my sternum and then my boob as I keep swaying my hips from to side, bending my knees as I lower myself a bit to the ground before sharply standing up again and slowly spinning around, circling my hips. I run my hands through the back of my hair before nailing my gaze on his eyes, slowly walking up to him. I watch him as he wets his lips before biting his plumb bottom one, eyes trailing up my body. Once I reach him, I wrap my arms around his neck and run my fingers through his hair as I press my body up against his. His hands shoot out to grab me from my lower waist, pulling me even closer to him as he pushes a leg between mine, staring into my eyes. I turn my head to the side and brush my lips against his ear before licking and biting his earlobe the same way I did at the party before whispering a few words he was dying to hear.
