Here is a preview:It made me feel like a retard going to it, though it was actually a class for super smart kids. Smart or retard, it didn’t matter. It was like a neon sign flashing over my head screaming DIFFERENT! NOT NORMAL! in bright flashing letters. I was with in there with ten other kids. A popular girl, myself, and nerds made up the class. We stayed in the class the whole day, only transitioning once to go to lunch.It was so boring all of the time. All the girls in the class hated me because I was smarter than them. I had no friends at this school. I had been going to this school for two months, and the girls hated me. The boys weren’t any better. Only perverted guys had talked to me, though plenty had slapped my rear. Jerks.I waited for about an hour for my ride to come and get me. Carter had already gone home with his girlfriend. I decided my ride wasn't coming to get me. I sighed, picked up my backpack full of heavy textbooks and began to slowly cross the parking lot. I was about halfway across the lot when a car came speeding down. I screamed, and the car would have hit me but he slammed on the brakes in the nick of time. "YOU ASS!!" I screamed!He looked pissed and shouted out, "Move your effing butt!!" He didn’t really say effing, but you get the picture. I was really mad. Move my butt? Okay!I turned around, mooned him and wiggled my butt. "WIGGLE WIGGLE WIGGLE WIGGLE WIGGLE, YEAH!" I screamed at him. Then, I pulled up my pants and promptly turned back to face him and flipped him off. I felt pretty good about myself as I walked away, but my face flushed when I wondered if any of the butt slappers had seen what they’d been spanking. I guess the thought made me walk a little faster on my way home.

Here is a preview:I walked by the house after school, and when I saw my Mom’s car wasn’t there, I snuck into the house. She wasn’t home, thank God. When I got to the living room, I saw Carson lying on the couch. “I thought you would be out with your girlfriend.” I said it viciously. I was really mad at him, and I had no idea why. He shook his head and said, “PMS much?” “Why do you say that?” I snapped. “Because you're being bitch.” I rolled my eyes, but secretly, I agreed. He sat up. “I don't always hang out with Ella, you know.” That was a lie. “Well then where do you go with her every day? It's not fair to me.” Carson rolled his eyes. “Mind telling me why exactly it's not fair?” I glared at him.“I think you know why.” He obviously knew why it wasn't fair that he was out with somebody and I was here alone with the she-devil. “No, Kelly. I really don't.” I took a deep breath and rolled up the sleeves on my sweater. My cuts weren't something I wanted to show. “What the hell Kelly?! You can't blame that on me!!” Oh my God. Was I really hearing what I thought I was? I just told my brother my darkest secret and he blew it off like it was nothing!I was causing myself harm and he didn't even make an effort to help. “Carson! Do you know what these are?” I screamed at him. “Yeah, I do. What do you want me to do about it?” I resisted the urge to take my nails and scrape his face and make it bleed. My brother had joined my father, completely unable to see what was happening. Just another little snapshot of what I went through every day.

A nurse with dark skin and a red wig said “This way, please.” At the end of a long hallway with many doors, the nurse opened the door. Carson was laying in a bed with tubes up his nose and things that looked like suction cups stuck to his head and arms. “CARSON!” I screamed. He slowly opened his bloodshot eyes. “Hey, Kelly.” he breathed heavily. “What… What happened Carse?” my eyes were once again clouded with tears. “O.D...” He breathed out in something more like a wheeze than a word. What? He overdosed? “Carson, you were doing drugs?” A small smile curled from his mouth. “Yeah...” he choked out. “But why, Carse?” a hot tear rolled down my cheek. “I thought you hated me. It eased the pain. I was doing it before then, though. Whenever I was with Ella, we were doing drugs. It was horrible. And then, well, I just…I just didn't want you hanging out with those thugs. That's why I flipped when I saw you with that Jace kid.” He wiped under my eyes where my makeup had obviously smeared. “You are so beautiful, Kelly.” I had been so oblivious to everything going on.I thought my life was horrible, but I was making everyone around me hurt.

I watched as the car roared and pulled away. I looked around. I was only a few blocks away from home, and I started walking slowly down the street. Who the heck was Kade and why had he grabbed me? What kind of sick pervert was he, or more to the point—what kind of a sick pervert was I because even though I trudged toward my own house I desperately wanted to be back at his?When I get home, I heard a smashed bottle and cursing. Just great, my mom was drunk. What a surprise. I realized I had nowhere else to go, so I had to go inside and hope I could make it to my room without seeing her. I opened the door as quietly as I could. Mom was in the bathroom puking, so I hurried toward my room. I was so damned close, but no cigar for me. "Kelly!" Her voice was slurred.

Like I was his “girl” or something? What the hell? Kale's face held genuine concern. One look into his deep ivy eyes and my heart melted. “Like personal issues. Self-harm and such...”I immediately regretted it as soon as I said it. Shit... Kale's eyes grew wide. “Like...cutting?” That word was like a slice to the heart. “No!” I denied. I was a liar. He rolled up my sleeves, revealing old scars, scabs and fresh cuts. “What the fuck?” I screamed, my voice full of rage. How could he do that?! What made him think he could reveal my secrets to the world. I knew I was exaggerating, but it was so frustrating! Like I hadn't tried hard enough to keep my secret... He scowled at me. “How could you do this to yourself?” he shouted.I couldn't bear to look at his angry eyes so I turned around. “You don't know my life...” He pulled me in to him, even though my back was facing him. His overwhelming delicious scent filled my nostrils. I inhaled deeply. “What the hell, Kelly,” he whispered. His breath tickled my neck. His mouth came to just below my ears when he bent over. A shiver went down my spine. Now it was my turn to receive a damp spot on my shirt. “Kale,” I whispered. My voice was hoarse. “Are you... Crying?”
