Imagine a world where being happy is a law.

If you're sad, you die.

This is what life is like for 15 year old Emma. She comes from a 'happy' family of four. Her mother who works as a nurse, her father who works as a police officer and her 16 year old brother who has no responsibilities other than school. Everyone in Emma's family is happy. Besides Emma, that is.

"Take your joy and everything will be okay." Her mothers states with a smile. "You can forget every bad thing that's happened. Everything will be better, forever." Leaving the room, she smiles at her lovely depressed daughter.


At the age of 13 Emma's family was killed. They lived outside of the district in the poor side of town because they were considered 'downers'. Downers are people who have REAL emotions. They have sadness, anger, fear and happiness. Yes, happiness. But they aren't happy all the time 

The only family member of Emma's that wasn't killed was her 14 year old brother who she is in search of. Emma fakes being happy in front of her family and friends. Emma has been searching for her brother for 3 years and hasn't lost hope despite her depression. 

Will Emma remember the painful events in her life to help her find her brother, or will she cave in and take her Joy?

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.

"All week, you've been on my mind, and I can't make it go away. Finally, after suffering in silence for so long at the thought of your lips, your laugh, and your smile..." Aaron trailed off, his eyes roamed my face. "All week?" I scoffed pulling away. "I've been in love with you for twenty years!" "We've been friends since childhood, and I've accepted that we're just not meant to be. I've tried to move on and you encouraged me to follow my dreams. I just... I didn't know that my dream was you." . ✧ . Bethany grew up in a small town in rural Alabama. Her older brother and her best friend had been the only closest people to her for years.
