Mia Smith is a 17 year old girl who puts a smile on her face, and hides her pain. She is a damaged girl, who wish's more then anything, to be born different. She's funny and loving, yet thats not good enough is it? You need to be smart, beautiful, athletic and happy to fit into in society's needs. Unfortunately Mia knows that. Having a crush on a guy that is attracted to your best friends makes it pretty hard to win him over, especially when your friends are hot. But what if he already noticed her? And what if he only wants the body not the damage that comes with it?
  
  "And thats when the yelling started. He yelled at me for many things. How I only care about myself, how I should go and live with my mum's, how I never do what is expected of me, how he lets me do things but I don't do things for him, how I am a fuck up. And while all of this yelling was going on, I realized that he was the only reason I was still alive. My father, the person who is screaming at my face, causing my face to become red and blotchy from tears, was the only reason that I hadn't killed myself. I was to scared of leaving him behind, scared of the pain I would cause him. But as he screams these things to me, I question whether he would feel less pain if I was just gone. And thats when I realise that I am causing more pain being alive, then if I was dead. "
