Music. Dance. Theater. Art. Film making.
All this can be found at the Hawking School of Arts, where each student fights to be the best and rise to the top. Whatever it takes to do that, the students of Hawking have no problem doing it. And just when it seems it can't get any more competitive, the Next Big Thing Competition is announced.
Filled with talent agents and famous directors, actors, music producers, and so many more people who could help these students become famous, everyone is fighting to win. However, as they'll find, it's not as easy as it seems. That is, until a film student by the name of Jay Lucas comes up with an idea that he's sure will win, and jump start his career as a famous director.
Jay decides to film what it's like at Hawking, pulling back all the layers of the students at the school who are competing in the competition, as well as demolishing the idea that an arts school is as glamorous as it seems on TV. But with so many others that are just as talented and even more talented than Jay, does he have what it takes to be the next big thing?
Do any of them?

As soon as the click of the door closed, he cornered me against it, his hands on either side of my head. I held in a breath because of his proximity. "I've been wanting to kiss you since the day I met you," he voiced honestly and nudged his nose against my own. "You taste so good, Paige, you don't even know." I looked away, not being able to handle his words but he quickly brought his index finger under my chin to bring my face back to his.

His Sweet Lies
Her brows furrowed. "You look like you have something specific you wanna ask me." The tips of Liam's ears turned red at Emma's very accurate observation. "I, uh... I usually just bullshit my way through projects, so I have no idea what the hell I'm doing." The corners of Emma's lips formed a small smile. Liam arched his brow. "What are you smiling at?" Her smile widened. "Nothing." Ever since Emma started going to Silver Creek High, she's been bullied over her discolored eyes. It all started when a boy brought attention to her in biology class one day, laughing at her and calling her a "freak" while the rest of the class laughed along with him. She never looked at him or saw his face; she just ran out of the room crying. She was now an outcast labeled as a freak and she wanted nothing more than to just disappear. She felt she had no purpose in life. Until her sophomore year when she fell in love with Liam, the guy every girl wanted; the guy every dude wanted to be. He had stolen her heart and she now wanted nothing more than to be with him. Unfortunately, Liam seemed to want nothing to do with Emma. He seemed to be straight up avoiding her. They never interacted for 3 whole years. That is, until now in their senior year, when they get paired up for a school project. The two must put their differences aside and try to work as a team. But as they spend more time together, feelings grow deeper, and secrets start to rise to the surface.

Games We Play
Victore Academy boarding school is a lot of things. To the outside world, it's the heaven of schools. For some students, it's an experience they'll never forget. For others, it's the place to start their careers. And maybe for a few, it's the peak of their lives and really as good as it's going to get for them. And for me... well, I'll need a bit more than this to talk about that. But before you step in, here's a few things that everyone makes note of: 1. The students have secrets. And money. It's hard to tell what more of, honestly. 2. Don't get a room on the West Side of the girl's dorms. The birds around that private property lake house downside from campus don't stop chirping at 5AM. It's unpleasant, to say the least. 3. Avoid Mr. Labadee's classroom at all costs outside of lessons, especially past fifth period. It's better off if you're left in the dark with this one. 4. That asshole from Spain that terrorizes all the young freshmen is not hot. However, girls do make note of the fact that he works out post seventh period and right before first, near the track field. 5. The Victor's Tournament happens every year for all the senior year students. It's a pretty big deal. 6. And I think Armin Rivers is probably going to kill someone before he wins it (and it's probably gonna be that Spanish asshole). cover by soundthealarmComplete
